Answer:

B) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that,

The number of permutations of r things out of n things at a time is obtained by the formula:

[tex]^nP_r =\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]

Here n = 6, r =3,

[tex]^6C_3 =\frac{6!}{(6-3)!}=\frac{6!}{3!}=\frac{6\times 5\times 4\times 3!}{3!}=120[/tex]

Hence, OPTION B is correct.
