@broog2045 That's because none of your values are both in the top 10 for column A and in the top 5 for B. Try, by typing 100 in B5 and then apply your filters again. Only row 5 will be displayed.

@Riny_van_Eekelen thanks a lot, but i want filter column B based line A was filtered,so i need the result that be displayed in column B was '0.8718、0.1254、0.3166、1.1799、0.0365' after filtered top 5 in column B ,how to achieve ?WechatIMG87.jpeg

If you have Excel with the latest FILTER function, the solution in the attached sheet, column E, might work for you. Otherwise, the one in column F.

Since you column A is already sorted you can simply filter the largest 5 from range B2:B11.
