Answer 2

This is a math question.

Combinations: Where N is the number of elements and K is the amount possible, the forumula is N!/K!(N!-K!), which computes to 56, however, since for each group of top three finishers there are 6 possibles arrangements, the answer above, 336, is given by multiplying 3! (or 6), the possible number of combinations in three, by 56.
