Student body elections are coming up and there are a lot of options. There are 3 candidates for president, 4 for secretary, and 10 for mascot. Suppose a student were to fill out their ballot by randomly picking a candidate or abstaining for each position. Each outcome in the sample space for the random ballots is equally likely. What is the probability of each outcome in the sample space? 120 220 -|m "A
