Answer: As the earth rotates from west to east, those places east of Greenwich will be ahead of Greenwich time and those to the west will be behind it. The earth rotates 360° in about 24 hours, which means 15° an hour or 1° in four minutes.

Hope it helps. If it does; please appreciate my work by marking me as the brainliest.
