Eight students are competing for a blue, red, and yellow ribbon for their agriculture project.How many different ways are there to present those ribbons if the order matters?

Since the three ribbons are distinct and order matters, assign students to the blue, red, and yellow ribbons in sequence. There are 8 choices for blue, then 7 remaining choices for red, and 6 for yellow: 8 × 7 × 6 = 336. The correct choice is C, 336.
