Theoretically, there are 24 times zones to cover the earth. So each time zone is 1 hour of time difference and 15 degrees. (Divide 360 by 24). However, practically, some time zones are larger than others. The line that seperates time zones are not straight. For example you can travel in the Central Time Zone and cover all of Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama before the time changes. I'm sure that is greater than 15 degrees of earth's rotation.
