Which option related to India's area shows a percentage?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2.4 percent of the world's land area

Option A shows a percentage because it states that India accounts for about 2.4 percent of the world’s geographical land area. A percentage expresses a part in relation to a whole, so this figure compares India’s area with the total land area of the world. Option B gives an absolute area in square kilometres, not a percentage. Option C gives a linear distance, while option D gives a longitude used to describe location and standard time. The governing concept is the difference between absolute and relative measures: square kilometres state actual extent, whereas percent states proportional share. Therefore A is unambiguously correct.
