What should be kept in mind while understanding India's north-south length and east-west width?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: These are expressed in kilometres as distance units

India’s north-south length and east-west width describe linear distances, so they are expressed in kilometres; option B is correct. North-south length measures the distance between the country’s northern and southern limits, while east-west width measures the distance between its eastern and western limits. A linear distance is measured in kilometres or miles. Area is a two-dimensional quantity and must be expressed in square kilometres, not ordinary kilometres. A percentage represents a proportion, not a physical extent, and a maritime boundary describes only a coastal limit rather than the country’s full dimensions. The governing concept is the difference between distance, area, proportion, and boundary type.
