the large number is I think the value of 52! or 52x51x50x......x3x2x1 the number of different possible arrangements for 52 cards. I believe is something along the lines of "different outcomes for a pack of playing cards"

That is absolutely brilliant, I still don't understand it but have finished the quiz so many, many thanks
As someone has said, the first can't be 120 degrees in a third of a triangle as there are only 60 degrees in one. It could be "... a third of a trapezium" but that seems too contrived
Sorry, I didn't spot Fibonacci's later answer
Here's a curve ball. What about 120 days in a term of a trimester? Just a thought.
That sounds better if that's what a trimester is
A trimester is 3 months
Ah, it's not that then.
