The answer

Rank by average width (narrowest to widest)

1. 1Strait of Gibraltar14.3 km
2. 2English Channel34 km
3. 3Bering Strait82 km
4. 4Red Sea305 km

Why this order

Ranked narrowest to widest, Strait of Gibraltar (14.3 km) goes at the top and Red Sea (305 km) at the bottom.

The closest call is Strait of Gibraltar (14.3 km) against English Channel (34 km), about 2.4 times apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.

The biggest gap is between Bering Strait and Red Sea, about 3.7 times apart, so that boundary should be the easiest part of the order to get right.

From top to bottom the figures span a factor of roughly 21.

These are the figures the game reveals after you submit. They are rounded; only the order is scored.
