Question 1HardLevel 6
Which option gives the correct meaning in India's size?
Correct answer: A
India’s east-west extent is about 2933 km, so option A is correct. Its north-south extent is about 3214 km; therefore, option B mixes up the two measurements. India’s coastline and land boundary are both much longer than 2933 km. Exam tip: remember 2933 km for east-west and 3214 km for north-south extent.
