Answer Posted / archana virmani

If west to east add time else subtract time so
the longitude difference is (70-10)=60 deg
Every 1 deg longitude is equal to 4 mins....
the change in the angle = 4*60=240 min = 4 hrs
means while moving from east to west we have a loss of 4 hrs
i.e 10 hrs - 4 hrs = 6 hrs
thus we have 2am + 6 = 8am
