70W is 180 degrees away from 110E, so if it's noon at 70W, it's midnight at 110E.
The person living 4 degrees longitude east of the noon meridian would experience solar time that is 16 minutes ahead of the time at the noon meridian. This is because for every 15 degrees of longitude, there is a one-hour difference in solar time.
The sun appears to move westward in the sky, at the rate of almost exactly1 degree every 4 minutes.If the solar time is Noon at 70° W, then at the place 5° east of there, theapparent solar time is [ Noon plus (5 x 4) ] = 12:20 PM.
The solar time of a person living 4 degrees of longitude east of the noon meridian would be 16 minutes ahead of local time. This is because the Earth rotates 15 degrees per hour, so for each degree east of the noon meridian, the solar time is ahead by 4 minutes.
If it's noon solar time at 90 degrees W longitude, every 15 degrees of longitude represents a one-hour time difference. So, at 72 degrees W longitude, the solar time would be 2 hours behind (2:00 PM).
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.

If the chronometer reads 8 AM Pacific Standard Time at solar noon, it indicates that your location is 120 degrees west longitude. This discrepancy in time suggests that you are 2 hours away from the Pacific Time Zone (120 degrees west longitude corresponds to a 2-hour time difference from Pacific Time).
If it is 12 noon at Greenwich (0 degrees longitude), then every 15 degrees of longitude corresponds to a one-hour time difference. Therefore, if you are 30 degrees east of Greenwich, the time would be 2:00 PM.
England's Royal Observatory in Greenwich (the source of Greenwich Mean Time - GMT) is 0 degrees longitude and the reference point. 120 degrees East is the longitude of the east coast of Taiwan. At that longitude, 1/3 of a circumference from Greenwich, the standard time (and date) should be 8 hours ahead of Greenwich. So if it is 4am in Greenwich, it should be noon in Taiwan.
When it is noon in London, England (at 0 degrees longitude), it would be 8 PM at a place located 150 degrees west longitude. This is because for every 15 degrees of longitude difference, there is a one-hour time difference.
At 90 degrees east, it will be 6 AM plus 6 hours, as each 15-degree longitude represents 1 hour difference. So, it will be 12 PM (noon) at 90 degrees east when it is 6 AM at the prime meridian.
If it is 12 noon at the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude), then at 83 degrees East, it would be 5:30 PM. This is because each degree of longitude represents a time difference of four minutes, and 83 degrees east of the Prime Meridian results in a total time difference of 332 minutes (or 5 hours and 32 minutes). Therefore, 12:00 PM plus 5 hours and 32 minutes is 5:32 PM.
