Size It Up Everyday Objects answer: October 17
The five Everyday Objects silhouettes for October 17, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 44 ran from a chicken egg (5.58 cm) to a king-size bed (2.03 m). The widest gap was round 2, King-size Bed against Brick, at 9.4×; the closest call was round 5, 3×3 Puzzle Cube against Floppy Disk, only 1.6× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
