Question

How many time zones does the contiguous United States have?

4
6
3
2

Answer 1

B. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hawaii-Aleutian time, Alaska time, Pacific time, Mountain time, Central time, and Eastern time are the six time zones used in the United States.

Answer 2

The correct answer is
B- 4

There are 9 time zones by law in the USA and its dependencies, however, adding the time zones of 2 uninhabited US territories gives 11 time zones in total. The contiguous US has 4 standard time zones. In addition Alaska, Hawaii, and 5 US dependencies all have their own time zones. As neither Hawaii nor the 5 dependencies use Daylight Saving Time (DST), there are only 6 corresponding DST time zones.
