Notes: Ranking Test | Math Olympiad for Class 5 PDF Download

Imagine you have a list of your favorite ice cream flavors. You might put chocolate at the top because it's your absolute favorite, then vanilla next because you like it a lot but not as much as chocolate, and maybe strawberry after that. That's ranking!

Ranking is when you put things in a specific order based on some criteria, like which one you like the most, which is the fastest, or which is the heaviest.

For example:

• In a race, the runners are ranked based on who crosses the finish line first.

• If you have a collection of toys, you might rank them by size, putting the biggest one first.
