UESTION 2 If you get on a plane in New York City at 9 a.m. and fly 6 hours to San Francisco, what time will the clocks read in San Francisco when you arrive there? 9 a.m. 12p.m. (noon) 2 p.m. 5 p.m.

12 pm. The time zone difference from New York to California is 3 hours. If you get on the plane in New York at 9, you're practically getting on at 6 in California's time. So if the trip takes 6 hours, then if you basically got on the plane at 6am (again, going by the time it would be in California, not New York), then add 6 hours to 6am, and you get 12pm/noon.

Hope I helped!
