He means if you have for example four contestants. A scores 90, B & C score
80 and D scores 70.

The ranking is;
First: A
equal Second: B & C
Fourth: D

Similarly, if three people tied for Second, then the next rank would be
Fifth.

Peo,
thank you for your help on this.
What do you mean there is no third place?

If there are ties for second place then there is no third
place
assume the values are in B1:B6

=RANK(B1,$B$1:$B$6,)

Hello folks,

I have a list of about 350 sales reps. I like to be
able
to rank them automatically based on the numbers that
appear in front of their name in column B.

These numbers are in percent with one decimal point
accuracy.

some of the reps of course have the same percent so they
need to be given the same ranking.

Example
Name percent Rank
Sharif 78.4% 1
Aljandro 66.9% 2
Flora 66.9% 2
Yusef 59% 3
John 48% 4
Anna 48% 4

What formul in the column for ranking can I use to
automate this please?
