Rankle #142 answer: land area of the US National Park (smallest to largest)

The answer

Rank by land area of the US National Park (smallest to largest)

1. 1Hot Springs National Park22.5 sq km
2. 2Virgin Islands National Park59 sq km
3. 3Zion National Park593 sq km
4. 4Yellowstone National Park8,983 sq km

Why this order

Ranked smallest to largest, Hot Springs National Park (22.5 sq km) goes at the top and Yellowstone National Park (8,983 sq km) at the bottom.

The closest call is Hot Springs National Park (22.5 sq km) against Virgin Islands National Park (59 sq km), about 2.6 times apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.

The biggest gap is between Zion National Park and Yellowstone National Park, about 15 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 400.

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