calculate the longitude of the position of a ship whose navigation office observe that Greenwich mean time is 1416 hours when the local time is noon

Ship is 34° west

Explanation:

given data

mean time is 14:16 hours

local time = noon

solution

as we know that when each degree of shift in the longitude then there will be a time difference of 4 minute

so 1° = 4 minutes

and

given time change in hour

change in hours = 14:16-12:00 = 2 hrs 16 minutes

so time zone at the ship location = 9 hours 20 minutes behind GMT

and

2 hrs 16 minutes = 136 minutes

now we convert to degree so divide by 4

change in degree =  

change in degree = 34°

so, ship is 34° west
