India has 2.4 percent of the world’s land area. Which is measured differently from this fact?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: India’s total coastline

The governing concept is the difference between an area percentage and a linear measurement. The statement that India accounts for about 2.4% of the world’s land area is a percentage describing a share of surface area. India’s total coastline, however, is a length measured in kilometres; it is not a percentage of land area. Therefore, option A is the correct different measurement. Options B, C, and D all describe percentages or shares of land or area, so they belong to the same general type of measurement as the given fact. The key distinction is area expressed as a percentage versus coastline expressed as distance.
