Between which degrees of north latitude does Bangladesh lie?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 20°34′−26°38′
  2. b 20°43′−26°83′
  3. c 26°34′−38°20′
  4. d 26°43′−38°26′
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a 20°34′−26°38′

The book says between 20°34´ North and 26°38´ North latitude.

Why the other options are wrong

  • b 20°43′−26°83′: The minute numbers are swapped; the book says 20°34´ to 26°38´.
  • c 26°34′−38°20′: Degrees and minutes are scrambled; the book's range is 20°34´ to 26°38´.
  • d 26°43′−38°26′: These numbers are not in the book; latitude is 20°34´ to 26°38´.
