Answer:

31465 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let us apply the combination formula

nCr = n! / r! * (n - r)!

n= 31

r= 4

substitute

= 31!/4!(31-4)!

= 31!/4!(27)!

= 31*30*29*28*27!/ 4!(27)!

= 31*30*29*28/4!

=31*30*29*28/4*3*2*1

=755160/24

=31465 ways

Hence there are 31465 possible ways to rank it
