Answer 1

24

Explanation:

The Earth is divided into 24 time zones, each corresponding to one hour of time. These time zones are based on the Earth's rotation, with each zone representing 15° of longitude. As the Earth rotates 360° in 24 hours, each time zone covers approximately 15° of longitude.
