Given that,

A lottery player must select 3 numbers from the range of 1 to 20.

The player can select the 1st number from the range 1 to 20. So there are 20 numbers to select the 1st number.

The player can select the 2nd number from the range 1 to 20. So there are 20 numbers to select the 2nd number because the number can be repeated.

Similarly, the player can select the 3rd number from the range 1 to 20. So there are 20 numbers to select the 3rd number.

Thus, the number of ways to select the number is,

20 \times 20 \times 20=8000

Therefore, the number of ways to select the lottery ticket is 8000.
