India is located on which side of the Prime Meridian?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: East

The direct answer is B: east. The Prime Meridian is the reference line at 0° longitude. Longitudes to its right on a standard map are east longitudes, and India lies roughly between 68°7′E and 97°25′E. Therefore India is east of the Prime Meridian. Option A, west, is wrong because India is not in the western longitudes from 0°; it lies in eastern longitudes. Option B is correct. Option C, south, gives a north-south direction and is not the answer to an east-west comparison; India is also north of the Equator. Option D, exactly above, is not a proper geographical direction or location description. Exam cue: Prime Meridian separates east and west; India is an eastern-longitude country.
