That's the half of the earth's surface known as the "Eastern Hemisphere".
"240 degrees east of the Prime Meridian" places you at 120 degrees west longitude.
The Prime Meridian is defined as zero longitude. All longitudes on Earth are measured east and west from there.
The prime meridian passes through Ghana and Benin is east of Ghana. So, it passes west of Benin. Hence Benin is east of prime meridian
lol love yea
... Eastern Hemisphere
The Eastern hemisphere
The equater divides earth into 2 hemispheres (North and South). The prime meridean divides Earth into 2 other hemispheres (East and West).
Eastern hemisphere.
West, because the entire continent is located in the western hemisphere. The Prime meridian runs North to South through Greenwich, England. The US is west from there.
No. It passes through eastern Spain. The farthest-east point in Portugal is at about 6.2
Lines of longitude run north-south from pole to pole. They are an angular measure of how far east or west you are of the prime meridean which runs, north-south, through Greenwich, England.
They are the axes of the coordinate system that is used for places on the earth's surface. Every point on the earth's surface is a certain number of degrees east or west of the prime meridian (its longitude) and a certain number of degrees north or south of the equator (its latitude).
