360° / 24 hours = 15° / hour. Note that the 360° is an approximation.
The Earth rotates 14.9590452 degrees per hour.

it takes one hour for the earth to rotate 15 degrees so the answer is 30 degrees
Every 15 degrees represent one hour. There are 360 degrees around the Earth. Divide 360 by 15 and you 24 - the number of hours in a day, and the time it takes the Earth to rotate on its axis.
If the Earth rotates 15 degrees/hour, then 7.5 degrees is half of 15, so it takes half an hour or 30 minutes.
1 hour
360 degrees in 24 hours means 15 degrees per hour.
The Earth rotates 360 degrees in a 24-hour period, so in a 12-hour period, it would rotate 180 degrees on its axis.
Since the Earth is a solid and must rotate all in one piece, every point on Earth rotates from west to east at the rate of almost exactly 15 degrees per hour.
20 minutes. The Earth rotates 360 degrees every 24 hours. So it rotates 15 degrees every hour, so 5 degrees is 1/3 hours or 20 minutes.
The Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, which means it rotates 15 degrees per hour (360 degrees / 24 hours = 15 degrees/hour). Therefore, in 2 hours, the Earth will rotate 30 degrees (15 degrees/hour x 2 hours = 30 degrees).
