When placing the student on the extreme left, there are 5 choices.
There will only be 4 students left for the second position, 3, 2, 1... and so on.
By the multiplication rule, we would multiply together the number of choices at each of the 5 positions to get the total number of ways to line up 5 students.

Try in a similar way lining up 3 students and see if you get 6 ways.
