I followed the installation doc from : [http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/intro\_installation.html](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/intro_installation.html)  
But I get the error “usr/bin/which: no ansible in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)” ?

That site lists a lot of different OSes to install the control machine.  
Which one are you using, what version, etc?

With the new version of RHEL 7.4 released today, ansible is in Extra  
Channel.... Perhaps easier to install for you
