\[\dbinom{200}{3}=\frac{200\times 199\times 198}{3\times 2}\]
what is in the parenthesis?
\[=200\times 199\times 33=1313400\]
read "200 choose 3" the number of ways to choose 3 from a set of 200
it really just restates the question. the arithmetic on the right gives the answer

ohh ok got it ;)
reason as follows: 200 choices for one prize then 199 for the second and 198 for the third, but then divide by 6 because that is how many ways you can reorder the 3 people, and you only want to count once
