The first prize may be awarded in any of 30 ways: any student may get it.
After the first prize has been awarded, the second prize may be awarded to any of the 29 students who have not yet won the price.
After both the prize is awarded, the third prize may be awarded to any one of the 28 remaining students who have not won either of the other two prizes.
Since all three prizes are awarded, we multiply the total possibilities:
30×29×28 = 24360
In 24360 different ways the prizes are awarded.
