Answer:
Latitude has nothing to do with determining time on earth. Longitude can allow you to determine time. If you can determine the longitude you are at and know the time at some other longitude, then the difference between the two lets you calculate the time difference (as in time of day).

Answer:
one day is 24 hours long one can easily use time to calculate longitude. One hour of time difference corresponds to 15° of longitude (360°/24 hours = 15°/hour). Suppose an observer sets his accurate watch to 12:00 at noon in Greenwich, England and then travels a great distance.
