Answer:

because London's 4 pm means India's 9:30 pm

Explanation:

the gmt passes through london as london's longitude is 0 degree

therefore London's time is same as the gmt's time

but india is at 82'5 degree longitude in the west of the gmt

and since 1 degree longitude makes a difference of 4 mins

INDIAN TIME IS 5 AND HALF HOURS AHEAD(SINCE IT IS IN WEST) OF LONDON

hence when it will be 4 pm in london, it will be 9:30(4+5:30) in india

this is the reason why riya and her brother came to watch the math at 9:30 pm
