  • Based on the time at City A and its longitude, the time in City B can be found to be 4 pm.

    Every 15° in longitude counts for an hour.

    The difference between these two locations in terms of longitude is:

    = 90 + 60

    = 150°

    Both longitudes were added instead of deducted because they are in different hemispheres of East and West.

    The difference in time would therefore be:

    = 150 / 15

    = 10 hours

    As City B is East, it would be ahead in time. Time is therefore:

    = 6 + 10

    = 1600

    = 4 pm

    In conclusion, the time in City B would be 4 pm.
