In which hemisphere is the Indian mainland located?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Northern and Eastern Hemispheres

The governing concept is hemispheric location determined by latitude and longitude. The Indian mainland lies north of the Equator, because its latitudes are approximately 8°4'N to 37°6'N. It also lies east of the Prime Meridian, because its longitudes are approximately 68°7'E to 97°25'E. Consequently, option A, the Northern and Eastern Hemispheres, is correct. Options B and D incorrectly place the mainland in the Southern Hemisphere, while option C incorrectly places it west of the Prime Meridian. The island groups do not change the standard conclusion about the location of the Indian mainland. Reading the N and E signs on the coordinate values provides the direct reasoning.
