Every gain or loss of 1° longitude stands for 4 minutes.
360°= 24 hours = 1440 min
360° implies one complete rotation of earth.
1° = 1440 min ÷ 360° = 4 min
now,
on every longitudinal degree increase towards east of prime meridean(i.e 0°), add 4 min and
on every longitudinal degree increase towards west, substract 4 min.After the hours is calculated add(if east) or substract( if west) it with time of GMT. example is mentioned below.
prime meridean is our world’s relative standard time calculator.Also known as GMT, Greenwich meridean time.
example.
mirzapur of india is at 82.5° East from prime meridean(GMT).
To calculate time
multiply 82.5 with 4 i.e 330 minutes.divide 330 min with 60 min i.e 5.5 hours.whatever time would be in greenwich,U.K, add 5.5 hours with that.
