**Question 14**

A world map displays a grid with lines of latitude and longitude. The map includes the Equator and the Prime Meridian, marked in bold red lines. It shows a cylindrical projection, representing continents such as North and South America, Africa, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

**Task:**

Using the latitude and longitude coordinate system, locate the North Atlantic Ocean (degree N or S, degree E or W).

**Options:**
- ○ 71° N, 45° W
- ○ 30° N, 45° W
- ○ 30° S, 100° W
- ○ 30° N, 45° E

The map includes a scale bar indicating 2000 km for distance reference.
