Asked by Jeannie
                How many different results could there be for 10 political candidates running for the same office in the upcoming election? 
There can only be 10 different results, only one person can win.

    I am uncertai what you want. If there is only one office, then any of the ten can win, and so, there are 10 possible results.
Now if you are wanting to see how many different ways 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and so on, then
waystofinish= 109*8*....= 10!
