Which option is an example of unit-based confusion while studying India's size?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Treating 3.28 million kilometres as area

The governing measurement rule is that area is two-dimensional and must be expressed in square units, such as square kilometres (km²), whereas length or distance is one-dimensional and is expressed in kilometres (km). Option A shows the confusion because 3.28 million kilometres is written as a length but is being interpreted as an area; it should be approximately 3.28 million km² if it represents area. Option B correctly treats kilometres as distance, option C correctly uses kilometres for coastline length, and option D correctly uses a percentage for a share. Therefore A is the only unit-based error.
