Question 18

It was midnight at the Fiji Islands. What would be the time in London?

  1. 8:00 am
  2. 12:00 noon
  3. 8:00 pm
  4. None of the above.
Answer

12:00 noon

Explanation — Fiji is about 12 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). So, when it is midnight (12:00 am) in Fiji, it would be 12 hours earlier — that is 12:00 noon of the previous day in London (GMT).
