First pigeons can be placed in a pigeon-hole in 3 ways (selecting 1 from 3 holes)
Second pigeons can be placed in a pigeon-hole in 3 ways
Tenth pigeons can be placed in a pigeon-hole in 3 ways
So total number of ways in which all the number 10 place can be sent
= 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
