Question

`\underline{ \underline{ \text{question}}} :` When it is 4 P.M in Baghdad located at 45° E , it is 8 P.M in Indonesia. What will be the longitude of Indonesia ?


`\star` Please explain thoroughly!

Answer 1

at 4 p.m Baghdad located at 45°E

at 8p.m Indonesia is located at x°

we have

common difference in time =8p.m-4p.m=4hours =4×60min

again

we have

4min=1°

4×60min=4×60/4=60°

since time is in p.m on both so they lie in same direction

Therefore, longitude of Indonesia=60°E.

hope this helps you. thanks
