Time on 0° longitude is called G.M.T. this is standard time of earth. Earth rotates from west to east so that sun arises from east and sunlight takes 4 minutes to cross one degree longitude means 360×4=1440 minutes or 24 hour. The Earth is divided into degrees of longitude and latitude which helps us measure location and time using a single standard. When used together, longitude and latitude define a specific location through geographical coordinates.
