Question : Explorers from Kushiro, Pevek and Namsos arrive at the North Pole and check their watches. If they arrived at 11 : 42 am, 12 : 17 pm and 3 am, respectively, which team was first?
North pole to Kushiro is 17 hours = 3 : 06 pm to 8 : 06 am
North pole to Pevek is 20 hours and 1 minute = 3 : 06 pm to 11 : 07 am
North pole to Namsos is 10 hours = 3 : 06 pm to 1 : 07 am
According to google, I've searched this places and I saw that North Pole is a bit late than this countries.
For example, North Pole time is 3 : 06 pm, October 14 2018. Then these 3 places are already at October 15 2018.
Answer : Namsos is the first team to arrived at the North Pole.

Hi Myka
ReplyDeleteWell done explaining how you solved the question by using time zones. What did you type into your search to get these answers? Did you remember to use only the key words like Miss Morgan taught us on Monday?
