Answer:

Explanation:

The earth spins through 360 degrees in 24 hours, meaning that in one hour the earth spins through (360÷24=)15 degrees. This means that, technically, as you travel around the earth, each 15 degrees of longitude difference in the location of places means that they should have a time difference of one hour.

Greenwich is located at 0 longitude

So the distance is 145 longitudes.

145/15=9.66

Therefore the time @ 145 longitude is 21:39
