Rankle #145 answer: estimated number of global adherents (fewest to most)

Daily puzzle for Tuesday 27 October 2026

The answer

Rank by estimated number of global adherents (fewest to most)

  1. 1Buddhism0.32 billion
  2. 2Hinduism1.2 billion
  3. 3Islam2.0 billion
  4. 4Christianity2.3 billion

Why this order

Ranked fewest to most, Buddhism (0.32 billion) goes at the top and Christianity (2.3 billion) at the bottom.

The closest call is Islam (2.0 billion) against Christianity (2.3 billion), only about 15% apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.

The biggest gap is between Buddhism and Hinduism, about 3.8 times 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.
