HEY MATE

HERE ISUR ANSWER

Explanation:

Longitudes are vertical imaginary lines on globe. Middle line is called prime meridian and value is 0° . Left and right side are 180° extension of these lines so total extension is 360°

Longitudes are vertical imaginary lines on globe. Middle line is called prime meridian and value is 0° . Left and right side are 180° extension of these lines so total extension is 360°Time on 0° longitude is called G.M.T. this is standard time of earth .
