# Answer Ranking

Ranking is a method that will allow you to setup and group multiple ranking fields together to ask the respondent to rank the answers by order.

If you prefer to ask the respondent for a number instead of drag / drop you may use the [ranking field](https://docs.ngsurvey.com/form-management/form-designer/answers/answer-types/ranking-field) or ranking dropdown which are better suited for mobile devices.
