उत्तर

Number of children in the running race = 4

The first place can be filled in (from the 4 children) 4 ways

After filling in the first place only 3 children are left out

So the second place can be filled in (from the remaining 3 children) 3 ways

So the first and the second places together can be filled in 4 × 3 = 12 ways
