Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Time at Greenwich = 7:30 pm

Greenwich is the 0° meridian of longitude.

Time at given place = 12 pm

Difference between the time at both places = 7 hours 30 mins.

NOW, as the time at given place is LESS than that at the Greenwich meridian, the place is to the WEST of it.

1° = interval of 4 mins

Therefore, 15° = 1 hour

Now, X° = 7.5 hours

-> 15 × 7.5 = 7.5 hours

-> 112.5° WEST
