I saw the Wolfram Alpha tutorial and got too excited/ambitious. Wanted to know: "size of England compared to a U.S. state" or "what state is the same size as England?" And it couldn't. I am sad.
But this "size of England compare size of U.S." got me a semblance of an answer:
| visual | ratios | | comparisons
United States | | 39.3 | 1 | 3834% larger
United Kingdom | | 1 | 0.0254 | 97.46% smaller
Whoot!
go, be amused:
