I don't understand how 0...0.5 could be more important as 0.5...1.0 or
how 0.5....1.0 is as important as 1.0....1.5
Set the contribution levels to a fix value and not a range.
Then you can calculate a weighted value over the 10 columns with
=SUMPRODUCT($B$2:$K$2*B3:K3) and copy down. Then rank this values

Thank you for your respond. The 2nd row means just name of that column. 1strow was indicating which column is more important(contribution level). It is just like this (I thought contribution level = 1>2>3>4>5>6>7>8>9>10 inmy file). it means column 1 is more important than column that named 2.

Is this function figure out 1 has smallest contribution level and 10 has highest contribution level to rank in my case? Then I have changed B1=1,C1=2, ..... k1=10 conversely B1=10, C1=9, ... K1=1
and
I have used your function like this, because 1st row was contribution leveland conversed 1st row
=SUMPRODUCT($B$1:$K$1*B3:K3)

Thank you again

you have to set the contribution level to the right relationship. In
your case now the values in column B seems to be 10 times more important
than the values in K
