A football match is to be played on Saturday in NewZealand(longitude 150 degrees east) between the host country and Nigeria (longitude 15 degrees east).If the match is to be televised life, at what time should Nigerians tune in their television sets to watch the kickoff scheduled for 4.00pm in NewZealand?
New Zealand (150°£). Nigeria (15°£)
4:pm ?
Since the countries are in East and East we subtract their longitude
=150°_ 15°
= 135°
But 1°= 4 minutes
135= 135×4
= 540 minutes
= 1hr =60 minutes
X hr = 540 minutes
X= 540÷60= 9 hrs
Since they are both East we subtract 9hrs from the time given in the question
4:00 pm _ 9 hour's
= 8:00am
15 degrees = 1 hour
135 / 15 = 9 hours
4 p.m. - 9 = ?
