  1. 74 W is roughly the eastern time zone.  Normally, there is a 6 hour difference (behind) GMT.  During Daylight Savings there is only a 5 hour difference.  So, 12 GMT is normally 0600 however, now it would be 0700.


  2. 1 degree equals 4 minutes

    74 degree= 74 *4=296 minutes or 4 hrs 56 minutes

    since the place is at west  

    time will be 12-00--4-56=07-04am

  3. At 74 degrees west or 121 degrees east, it will still be 12:00 GMT. Makes no difference where you are on earth or in space, GMT or Zulu time is based on the time in Greenwich, England.

    74 degrees west runs through New york City where the local time would be 7:00 AM Eastern Standard Time or 8:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time.  For STANDARD time anywhere, you can make a rough estimate by figuring one hour for every 15 degrees.  So for 74 degrees, the difference would be 5 hours.  Add the hours for going east and subtract for going west.
