Answer : 4. "15°"
Explanation :
The Earth rotates through 15° each hour so to rotate through 30° degrees it would take 2 hours. We use a system of imaginary lines to tell us where we are on the surface of the Earth. A series of imaginary circles – called lines of latitude – tell us how far North or South of the Equator we are.
