It would be better if you mention Am or Pm in the question. But I'll consider that the time difference is 4 hrs.
The Greenwich Meridian is" 0°"
The time difference = 4 hrs = 240 mins
The time difference between two consecutive longitudes = 4 mins
Longitude
= Time difference in mins / T.d between 2 cons..
= 240/ 4
= 60°
So, the longitude is 60°W and is behind the Greenwich Meridian.
Hope this helps you
