This question says that 100 people enter a contest and that different winners are selected at random for first, second and third prizes.
With 3 person winning a prize each. I am wondering if this if inclusion exclusion problem. Clearly, each person has a 1/100 chance of winning. So would this be using the formula of union of p(e1), p(e2) , p(e3)? I am quite confused to how to approach this problem.
