On which side of the Equator is India located?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: North

Correct answer: B, north of the Equator. The Equator is the imaginary 0° latitude line that divides Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. India extends from about 8°4′N to 37°6′N latitude, so all of mainland India lies north of the Equator. The letter N means north latitude. Option A is wrong because south of the Equator means a southern latitude marked S, and India is not in the Southern Hemisphere. Option C is wrong because west and east describe direction from the Prime Meridian and are related to longitude, not the side of the Equator. Option D is wrong because India is not located exactly on the Equator; it lies some degrees north of it. Therefore B is correct. Memory cue: the Equator separates north from south; India is in the Northern Hemisphere.
