Natasha wants to unlock the supply cabinet in her office. She has 10 cabinet keys and knows that only one of these keys will unlock the supply cabinet. If she randomly selects a key without replacement, which expression represents the probability that the third key selected will unlock the supply cabinet?

• $\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)\times\left(\frac{8}{9}\right)\times\left(\frac{1}{8}\right)$

• $\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)\times\left(\frac{8}{9}\right)\times\left(\frac{7}{8}\right)$

• $\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)\times\left(\frac{8}{9}\right)\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)$

• $\left(\frac{9}{10}\right)\times\left(\frac{8}{9}\right)\times\left(\frac{7}{10}\right)$
