If it is 3:00 PM in New Delhi (77°E), what time is it in London (0°)?
Step 1: Identify the time zone difference between New Delhi and London. New Delhi is at 77°E and London is at 0°.
Step 2: Calculate the difference in degrees: 77°E - 0° = 77°.
Step 3: Since the Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, we can find out how many hours correspond to 77 degrees. Divide 77 by 15 (because 360/24 = 15): 77 / 15 = 5.13 hours.
Step 4: Since New Delhi is ahead of London, subtract the time difference from New Delhi's time. Start with 3:00 PM in New Delhi.
