Answer:

1) east longitude will be 6 am, Monday 25th

2) west longitude will be 6 am, Tuesday 26th

Step-by-step explanation:

Every 15° is equal to one hour

Greenwich is the zero in GMT.

For east, 180°/15 = 12 hours late

Therefore time will be 6 am December 25th.

For the west, time will be 6 am December 26th.
