Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you fly from Los Angeles to Hong Kong traveling west, you cross the International Date Line. This means you essentially "lose" a day.

If you depart Los Angeles on a Wednesday at noon and you're flying non-stop to Hong Kong, when you land it will be:

C) Thursday

So, the answer is Thursday.
