    the first chair can be filled in 8 ways,
for each of those the 2nd chair can be filled in 7 ways, (one is seated)
and for each of those, the 3rd chair can be filled in 6 ways, so
number of ways = 8*7*6 = 336 ways

    Use a permutation. 
8! divided by (8-3)! = 336
    
8! divided by (8-3)! = 336
