Answer:

10 hours

Explanation:

The Earth completes one full rotation on its axis in approximately 24 hours.

To determine how long it takes for the Earth to rotate a certain number of degrees, we can set up a proportion.

Let
$\sf t$ be the time it takes for the Earth to rotate 150 degrees.

$\sf \frac{t}{24 \textsf{ hours}} = (150^\circ )/(360 ^\circ )$

Now, solve for
$\sf t$ :

$\sf t = (150 * 24)/(360)$

$\sf t = (3600)/(360)$

$\sf t = 10 \textsf{ hours}$

Therefore, it takes approximately 10 hours for the Earth to rotate 150 degrees on its axis.
