Worked Solution & Example Answer:The Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) of Auckland is +12 hours and the UTC of Chicago is -5 hours - HSC - SSCE Mathematics Standard - Question 5 - 2019 - Paper 1
Step 1
When the time in Chicago is 2 pm, Thursday
Answer
Chicago operates on UTC -5 hours. Therefore, when it is 2 pm on Thursday in Chicago, we can calculate the corresponding time in UTC by adding 5 hours: 2 pm + 5 hours = 7 pm UTC on Thursday.
Auckland operates on UTC +12 hours. To find the time in Auckland, we now add 12 hours to 7 pm UTC: 7 pm + 12 hours = 7 am on Friday in Auckland.
