Which time zone is GMT?

Answer 1

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is a time standard based on International Atomic Time (TAI) with leap seconds added at irregular intervals to compensate for the Earth's slowing rotation. Leap seconds are used to allow UTC to closely track UT1, which is mean solar time at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich.

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) can be considered equivalent to UTC or UT1. Owing to the ambiguity as to whether UTC or UT1 is meant, GMT is generally avoided in technical contexts

Answer 2

GMT = Greenwich Mean Time. Greenwich is a town in England, UK. If a place in the world is described as being "GMT + 7" that means it is seven hours ahead of the time in England. And "GMT - 5" means five hours behind England. see Related Links below for a live map of world times & GMT

Answer 3

GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time. It used to be the time standard before Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Many countries on UTC still use the name as an alternative to Western European Time (WET).

Answer 4

GMT or Greenwich Mean Time is a time standard for the world and has no set location. While many people assume that its location is London, this is not the case, as London only matches GMT for about half the year. The other half of the year it is GMT plus 1. GMT is slowly being phased out for UTC time, or Coordinated Universal Time.

Answer 5

GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time, which is the time zone that includes Greenwich, London, and is sometimes referred to as Universal Time Coordinated (UTC+0). It is used as the standard for coordinating time worldwide.
