(Hawaii: 28,311 km²)
Alaska: 1,717,854 km²
Other 48 states: 8,080,464.25 km²
Japan: 377,873 km²
Now we calculate:
(28,311+1,717,854+8,080,464.25)/377,873 = 26.0051108
8,080,464.25 / 377,873 = 21.3840741
So, the whole US is 25x, but "contiguous 48", as wikipedia calls them, are only 20x.
- dkasper 17y agowhoops good call, I knew that didn't seem right. I was looking at square miles for the contiguous 48 and square kilometers for Japan.
