Two longitudes have time difference of 4 minutes and thus, the time of a location is calculated as 4 x longitude degree from Prime Meridian.

Answer:

Describe the lines of longitude and state their use in relation to distance and time. Answer: ... As the earth takes 24 hours to make a complete rotation along its axis crossing 360° lines of longitude, so earth takes nearly 4 minutes to move one degree (1 °) longitude or 111 km length or distance.
