`(7 xx 6 xx 5) / (1 xx 2 xx 3)`

`(7 xx 6 xx 5 xx 4 xx 3) / (1 xx 2 xx 3 xx 4 xx 5)`

If a judge must select three winners from 10 contestants, which of the following is NOT true?

If they simply choose three overall winners, there are `((10),(3))` possible outcomes.

If they specifically identify who gets first place, who gets second place, and who gets third place, there are `((10),(1))((9),(1))((8),(1))` possible outcomes.

There are exactly 10 + 9 + 8 = 27 more possible outcomes if they choose first, second, and third place individually instead of choosing three overall winners.

There are exactly 3 × 2 × 1 = 6 times as many possible outcomes if they choose first, second, and third place individually instead of choosing three overall winners.

`((52),(1))((51),(1))((50),(1))((49),(1))((48),(1))((47),(1))`
