    There are 2,730 ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined in the race

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 15 (number of runners) possibilities to determine the 1st place

    There are 14 possibilities (number of runners - 1) to determine the 2nd place

    There are 13 possibilities (number of runners - 2) to determine the 3rd place

    Number of ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined = 15 * 14 * 13

    Number of ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined = 2,730
