JestfulDormouse14877, It says third largest US state, not third largest of choices! Montana is 4th largest, I know, I live in Montana!

PickyBugBear2017, land size should be a given, if it was asking for population it would say highest population lol

I was not sure if they meant by land area or population

Player #32008850, When describing the size of a city, the default measure is always population; however, for all other geographic places, i.e. states, countries, continents, islands, area is the default measure.

By land mass or population? After reading explanations, clearly the answer is looking for land mass.

All I know is the size Montana is on a US map is nowhere near accurate. It shows it being about the size of Washington but then I drove thru it. It is huge comparitively

MontanaIndigo, I lived in Alaska when it became a state in 1959. I remember jokes about Texas complaining...and the Alaskan comeback was if they didn't stop complaining, we'd divide in half and make Texas the 3rd largest state.

Player #2910090, Largest refers to size alone. If the most populous, the question would have to state whether it referred to having the most residents or the greatest number of people resident per square mile.
