Answer:
1.48 p.m.
Explanation:
In India, the time of Delhi is calculated by 82°30’ east longitude. Tokyo is situated at 139°45’ East longitude.
So, the difference between the longitudes is 139°45’ – 82°30’ = 57°15. So, the time difference between Delhi and Tokyo is 57°×4 minute.
= 228 min. (as 1° longitude is equal to 4 min.)
= 3 hrs. 48 min
Time in japan is 3 hrs. 48 min ahead and hence the time is 1.48 pm
