Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rankings of teams in a tournament can be ordered from first to last, making it an ordinal scale. However, there is no inherent numerical value or ratio between the rankings, so it is not an interval or ratio scale. Additionally, there is no inherent grouping or categorical labeling, so it is not a nominal scale.
