Homework Statement
How many was can 3 identical prizes be awarded to 98 potential winners?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Well. I know that if the prizes were unique, the first prize would have 98 possible winners, the second prize would have 97 possible winners, and the third prize would have 96 possible winners, totaling (98)(97)(96) possibilities. Since they are all identical, some number of solutions will be eliminated. Can anyone hint at how I should go about this?
