Default how do I Count repeating numbers in the previous column?

Your data appears to already be sorted by market number, inteh furture you
might try the subtotal feature, just change from default of "sum" to "count".

I have this set up:

Market Count
1501
1501
1501
1501
1501 5
1506
1506
1506 3
1507
1507
1507 3

I did this manually for a file of over 1000 lines. Now I need to do the
same thing for a file of 5000 lines. The file is sorted by "Market". I just
need to create a formula that will Count the numbers repeated in column A and
put the answer in column B. Can you help?
