Give the time in Nairobi 37^oE when the local time at Manual 60^oW is 11.30 a.m.

Answers

The difference in degrees is 60^o+37^o=97^o

1^o=4 minutes

97x4=388 minutes.

Thus,388/60=6 hours 28 minutes.

Nairobi is 6 hours 28 minutes east of prime Manual.

The time is 11.30 a.m.+6hrs 28 minutes=17 58 hours or

5.58 p.m.
