Question 1724Navigation General70% to pass

Some locations maintain a zone time of -13. What are the Greenwich time and date if the zone time and date are 0152, 10 January?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 1252, 9 January. To arrive at this answer, we need to consider that a time zone of -13 means that the local time is 13 hours behind Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). So, if the local time is 0152 on January 10, the corresponding GMT time would be 1252 on January 9. The other options are incorrect because: B) 1452, 9 January - This would be 14 hours behind GMT, not 13. C) 0052, 11 January - This would be 13 hours ahead of GMT, not behind. D) 1452, 11 January - This would be 14 hours behind GMT, not 13.
