Q
Q: How many time zones are there in the world if each zone is 15 degrees apart?
Solution:
The Earth is 360 degrees, and if each time zone is 15 degrees, then 360 / 15 = 24 time zones.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that the Earth is a sphere and can be measured in degrees.
Step 2: Know that a full circle is 360 degrees.
Step 3: Learn that time zones are divided based on degrees of longitude.
Step 4: Recognize that each time zone is 15 degrees apart.
Step 5: To find the number of time zones, divide the total degrees of the Earth (360) by the degrees per time zone (15).
Step 6: Perform the calculation: 360 divided by 15 equals 24.
Step 7: Conclude that there are 24 time zones in the world.
