​

Answer 1

Explanation:

We know that 15 ‘ ( Degree) = 1 hour

Step 1 :- convert the degree to hours , 73/15= 4.8666 ( 5 hours and 26 minutes)

Step 2 :- Calculate the actual time

Given that Greenwich time is 12:00 PM

Add 5 hours and 26 minutes with 12:00 PM = 17:26 PM or 05:26 PM

local time in 73′ (degree) location is evening 05:26 PM
