Step-by-step solution

4 steps

60. The time in Accra Ghana is 000^0 7 am. Calculate the time in Mogadishu 45045^0 E?

  1. Identify the given longitudes and time.

    Longitude of Accra (Ghana) = 000^0
    Time in Accra = 7 am
    Longitude of Mogadishu = 45045^0 E

  2. Calculate the difference in longitude.

    Since Accra is at 000^0 and Mogadishu is at 45045^0 E, the difference in longitude is:

    Longitude difference=450−00=450\text{Longitude difference} = 45^0 - 0^0 = 45^0

  3. Convert the longitude difference to time difference.

    We know that 15015^0 of longitude corresponds to 1 hour of time difference.

    Time difference=Longitude difference150/hour\text{Time difference} = \frac{\text{Longitude difference}}{15^0/\text{hour}} Time difference=450150/hour=3 hours\text{Time difference} = \frac{45^0}{15^0/\text{hour}} = 3 \text{ hours}

  4. Determine the time in Mogadishu.

    Since Mogadishu is East of Accra, it will be ahead in time.

    Time in Mogadishu=Time in Accra+Time difference\text{Time in Mogadishu} = \text{Time in Accra} + \text{Time difference} Time in Mogadishu=7 am+3 hours\text{Time in Mogadishu} = 7 \text{ am} + 3 \text{ hours} Time in Mogadishu=10 am\text{Time in Mogadishu} = 10 \text{ am}

    The time in Mogadishu is 10 am\text{10 am}.
