How is India's north-south extent compared to its east-west extent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Slightly greater

The correct answer is A, slightly greater. India’s north-south extent is approximately 3,214 km, measured from the northern Himalayan region to the southern end of the mainland, whereas its east-west extent is about 2,933 km. The difference is roughly 281 km, so the north-south dimension is longer, but not dramatically so. Option B reverses the comparison, and option C ignores the measurable difference between the two dimensions. Option D is clearly unreasonable because India is a large country in both directions. These figures describe the country’s overall size and help explain why India has considerable variations in climate, vegetation, and local time.
