Which emirate is the smallest in area among the seven emirates of the UAE?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Ajman
- Step 1: Ajman has an area of 259 square kilometres. Answer: Ajman. The other areas are Umm Al Quwain 720, Fujairah 1,450 and Ras Al Khaimah 1,684 square kilometres, so Ajman is the smallest. Why not the others: Umm Al Quwain (720), Fujairah (1,450) and Ras Al Khaimah (1,684 square kilometres) are all larger than Ajman's 259.
