उत्तर

Equator

Explanation:

The distance between two lines of longitude is greatest at the Equator, as the meridians are widest apart here. This is because the Earth's surface is widest at the Equator, and meridians are farthest from each other. As you move towards the poles, the meridians converge, becoming closer until they meet at the poles.
