Answer:
Above answer is wrong please see my answer........
->While travelling eastwards to the American side, a date is repeated, if the time is 11 p.m. on 26th December on the Asian side but by crossing the International Date Line, 11 hours is decreased that's why it is 11 p.m. on 25th December on the American side. This is so because there is 11 hours difference on both the side of this longitude. As a result of crossing the International Date Line eastwards, Christmas Day get repeated. The person celebrates Christmas day on two successive days.
