Rankle #144 answer: maximum length of the lake (shortest to longest)

The answer

Rank by maximum length of the lake (shortest to longest)

1. 1Lake Huron332 km
2. 2Lake Michigan494 km
3. 3Lake Superior563 km
4. 4Lake Tanganyika673 km

Why this order

Ranked shortest to longest, Lake Huron (332 km) goes at the top and Lake Tanganyika (673 km) at the bottom.

The closest call is Lake Michigan (494 km) against Lake Superior (563 km), only about 14% apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.

The biggest gap is between Lake Huron and Lake Michigan, about 49% apart, so that boundary should be the easiest part of the order to get right.

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

Difficulty: hard, judged by how close the tightest pair is.
