India's total land boundary is correctly linked with which number?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (15200) km

The direct answer is A: 15,200 km. A land boundary is the part of a country's boundary that touches neighbouring countries on land. India's approximate land boundary length is given in school geography as 15,200 km. Therefore A is correct. Option B, 7,516.6 km, is associated with India's total coastline, including the coast of islands in the commonly used textbook figure; it is not the land boundary. Option C, 2,933 km, is approximately India's east-west extent. Option D, 3,214 km, is approximately India's north-south extent. The word land is the key clue: it means borders across land, not the edge beside the sea. A boundary and an extent are different ideas. Extent measures how far the country spreads in a direction; boundary measures the length of its border. Thus the large 15,200-km figure is suitable for the land boundary. Memory cue: land boundary is 15,200; coastline is 7,516.6; north-south is 3,214; east-west is 2,933.
