The longitude of station X cannot be determined from the information provided. Longitude is a measure of the location of a place on the Earth's surface, east or west of the Prime Meridian, which is 0° longitude. It is not affected by the time of day or the location of other places. In order to determine the longitude of station X, you would need to know its location relative to the Prime Meridian.
