Answer:

69090840 possible rankings

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of possible ranking ordered in terms of effectiveness can be obtained using permutation

Number of salesperson = 39

Number of rank = 5

nPr = n! ÷ (n - r)!

nPr = 39P5

39P5 = 39! ÷ (39 - 5)!

39P5 = 39! ÷ 34!

39P5 = 39 * 38 * 37 * 36 * 35 = 69090840
