What does longitude measure going from the prime meridian?
Longitude is the angular measurement in degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is at zero degrees; going east, your longitude is in degrees and minutes east, while going west your longitude is measured in degrees and minutes west. A circle is 360 degrees, so the maximum longitude is 180 degrees either way. At the 180 degree line (called the "anti-meridian") the measurement is neither east nor west.
How many miles does one degree of longitude cover?
That's going to depend on how far you are north or south of the equator. The distance between any two meridians of longitude is maximum along the equator, and it shrinks to zero at the poles, where all meridians of longitude converge (come together). One degree of longitude represents about 111.2 km (69.1 miles) on the equator. Anywhere else on earth, it would be 111.2 multiplied by the cosine of your latitude.
What are the countries along the 40 degree north latitude line?
Spain, United States, Japan, North Korea, China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan (areas surrounded by Kyrgyzstan), Tajikistan, Trukmenistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkey, Greece, Albania, and Italy, starting at the Prime Meridian (0o longitude) and going west.
Is longitude going down or up?

What is located 85 degree east latitude and 23 degree north longitude?
Latitude is 'north' or 'south', and longitude is 'east' or 'west', so there's a lot of ambiguity in this question. We're going to assume that it means 85 E longitude and 23 N latitude. That point is in eastern India, about 180 miles south-southwest of Patna, and 21 miles west-northwest of the center of Calcutta.

What is the solar time of 72 degrees W longitude if it is noon solar time at 70 degrees W longitude?
Since the degrees here are 2 more than the original 70 degrees, and each degree going W equals 4 minutes; if you start at noon, and you multiply (2) degrees by (4) minutes, then you get 8 minutes, which you add to the original time of (noon). You answer is 12:08 p.m.
