The differences in degrees of longitude between Alexandria and Malindi is 40o-30o=10o

The difference in time between 1o longitudes is 4 minutes.
So the total difference in time between the two towns is 10ox4 minutes=40 minutes.

Alexandria is west of Malindi so it is behind in time by 40 minutes.

Therefore,the local time at Alexandria is 12.00-40 minutes=11.20 a.m
