Search Results for Three Coins Need to be placed in 5*5 grid such that no coins can be placed in same row and same columns.How many ways we can do it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Start with the first row, you have 5 choices for where to put the coin. Now on the second row, you only have 4. On the 3rd row you have 3. Then 2. Then 1. So the answer is 5! = 120
