Town C is located on latitude 15°E while Town D is located on latitude 60°E. If the located time in Town C is 7:00am, what will be the local time in Town D?
Explanation
The difference in longitude is 60° − 15° = 45°. Every 15° equals 1 hour, so 45° ÷ 15° = 3 hours.
Town D is farther east, so its time is ahead. 7:00am + 3 hours = 10:00am.
