Explanation:
Each degree is 60 angular minutes. Not real minutes as in time, but minutes of angle. It's just a way of measuring very small angles. So in 1 day, the Earth turns by 360 degrees * 60 minutes per degree = 21600 angular minutes.

Answer:
4 minutes.
Using a division equation again, you can also figure out how many minutes it takes for the earth to spin 1 degree: 60 minutes divided by 15 degrees = 4 minutes per degree.
