Rankle #98 answer: population (fewest to most)

The answer

Rank by population (fewest to most)

1. 1Canada40 million people
2. 2United Kingdom67 million people
3. 3Japan123 million people
4. 4United States335 million people

Why this order

Ranked fewest to most, Canada (40 million people) goes at the top and United States (335 million people) at the bottom.

The closest call is Canada (40 million people) against United Kingdom (67 million people), about 68% apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.

The biggest gap is between Japan and United States, about 2.7 times apart, so that boundary should be the easiest part of the order to get right.
