Which country is surrounded by 3 oceans ??

 This question was asked on Koun Banega Karodpati program.


Question 


Which country is surrounded by 3 oceans ?


1.  Canada 


2.  Mexico 


3.  Argentina 


4.  Egypt 


Answer 


When i read the question, 


If a country surrounded by oceans in all the 4 sides, it would be an island  !!!!


If it is surrounded ñy oceans in 3 sides, it must be having land at the remaining side.


Similar to our country,  India.


But here they said oceans.


Our country has Indian ocean in one side.


Rest  we have sea and a bay.


Now we will look at options.


Egypt is surrounded by Mediterranean sea, Red sea and gulf of Aqaba.


So Egypt is ruled out.


Mexico is surrounded by gulf of Mexico and Pacific ocean.


So Mexico is ruled out.


Now coming to Argentina, it is surrounded by Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil and Uruguay in 3 directions. Atlantic ocean at the remaining side.

 

So Argentina is ruled out.


Now coming to Canada, it is surrounded by Pacific ocean, Arctic ocean and Atlantic ocean in 3 sides and USA at the south 



Canada is the country surrounded by 3 oceans, Pacific  Arctic and  Atlantic oceans.
