so, let's detemine how many points got each one
Cardona: Was selected 1st by 6 people, 2nd by 2 people, 3rd by 4 people and 4th by 2 people
[tex]C=3*6+2*2+1*4=26[/tex]So, that's a total of 26 points
Pitts-Jones: Was selected as: #1 by 4 people, #2 by 3 people, #3 by 6 people and 4th by 1 person
[tex]P=3*4+2*3+1*6=24[/tex]So, that's 24 points for Pitts-Jones,
De Plata: Was ranked #1 by 2 people, #2 by 8 people, #3 by 1 person and #4 by 3 people
[tex]D=3*2+2*8+1*1=23[/tex]That's 23 points for De Plata
Vincent: Was ranked as #1 by 2 people, #2 by 1 person, #3 by 3 people and #4 by 8 people
[tex]V=3*2+2*1+1*3=11[/tex]that's 11 points for Vincent,
