5. Why is the standard Mendian selected by a country a multiple of 7.5?

Answered by snehatheanswerer

Because 15 degrees of longitude is equivalent to 1 hour in time (that is 360 / 24) it is convenient to adopt time zones at 7.5 degrees or 15 degrees multiples. In other words time zones are separated by multiples of 1 hour or 1/2 hour

hope it helps.
