The earth has been divided into 360 degrees of imaginary longitudinal lines.

Now, these 360 degrees divided by the 24 hour day, results in 4 minutes per longitude.

Thus, if you move from one longitude to the next the difference will be of 4 minutes.

By the same logic, per 15 degrees movement will result in a difference of 1 hour

I hope help u
