Dear Friends,
I want to include the following ranking question in Google form.
Please rate different risks from 1 to 8 in the order of their importance where 1 is for least important and 8 is for most important.
Credit risk
Liquidity risk
Interest rate risk
Price risk
Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
Operations risk
Foreign exchange risk

Which option in Google form will allow me to give such type of question?
Thanks and Regards,

Using GRID option is the best

Thanks sir for taking an effort.
 
But I have a doubt here.  Suppose I am giving the numbers from 1 to 7 to these risk then if I have allotted 1 to credit risk and then I should not be able to give the same rank to some other risk which is happening the present case. What I expect here that row wise as well as column wise selection should not be repeated.

After posting question on the group I searched more and found that this is possible with Surveygizmo.com. It shows this feature in its types of questions sheet as Ranking Grid but allows us to use it only when we pay and take one of its plans.

Dear Sir & Group Members,

I believe Suksham mam is suggesting that whenever certain fixed number of statements are to be ranked either from highest to lowest or from lowest to highest on a given scale, a respondent is expected to assign a unique rank to each individual statement. But, the form utility of Google Drive doesn't permit a specific representation wherein it can be ensured that for a rank order type question we obtain uniquely ranked statement. Thus, is because in a Grid pattern with radio buttons we can only hope that respondents are vigilant enough and assign unique ranks (but the form will accept duplicate ranks as well). But, this is best we can achieve via form utility of Google Drive

As per Suksham mam there are certain survey solutions/platforms which allow typical representation of rank-order type of questions. But these are available on paid basis.
