Explanation:

There is a time difference of 4 minutes per 1 degree change. Hence the following calculation will be done.

Long Time difference

8803′ – 80-30′ × 4 = 5 hrs 54 minutes,

Countries in E of Greenwich Meridian, will get more time i.e., in East time will be added, while in West time will be less. At 0º longitude is 19 hrs of 28th Feb.

19 hrs + 5 hrs 54 minutes = 24 hrs–54 minutes the date will change at 24.01 hrs. So it will be 0-54 minutes of 1st March.
