Answer:

B.120

Explanation:

The questions says in how many ways band she choose 3 of the 10 students

Using Combination Formula, which says

C = n! / (n! (n - r) !)

n represents the total number of students

r represents the students he want to choose

The number of combinations 3 out of 10

¹⁰₃C = 10! / (3! (10 - 3) !)

= 10! / 3! 7!

= 10*9*8*/ 3*2*1/ 7*6*5

= 3628800 / 6*5040

= 3628800 / 30240

= 120ways
