FINDING THE TIME OF TIME ZONE©

FINDING THE TIME OF TIME ZONE^©

In the Aristean Time Zones, the world is divided into 20 divisions. Each division or zone is 18 degrees longitude wide and time is 5 aristos wide. The time is in aristos. Details of the Aristean Time Zones is at http://www.geocities.com/peacecrusader888/timezone.htm and the Aristean Decimal Time is at http://www.geocities.com/peacecrusader888/decimaltime.htm.

The formula to find the time of a Time Zone is:

T₂ = 5(Z₂ – Z₁) + T₁

where T₁ is the time of the given Time Zone,

T₂ is the time of the Time Zone sought for,

Z₁ is the Zone Number of the given Time Zone, and

Z₂ is the Zone Number of the Time Zone in question.

	Zone Number, Given	Time, Given	Zone Number, in Question	Time, Sought For	Remarks
	Z₁	T₁	Z₂	T₂	Remarks
1	16	25	19	40	Both zones on the same day
2	19	40	16	25	Both zones on the same day
3	16	90	19	105	Time is 5 plus 1 day to date of Z₁
4	19	5	16	-10 or 90	Time is 90 minus 1 day to date of Z1
5	3	20	17	90	Both zones on the same day
6	17	90	3	20	Both zones on the same day
7	3	85	17	155	Time is 55 plus 1 day to date of Z₁
8	17	55	3	-15 or 85	Time is 85 minus 1 day to date of Z₁

Note: If T₂ is more than 100, the time is the tens part, like in examples 3 and 7, they are 5 of 105, and 55 of 155, respectively. But the date of Z₂is plus one day of date of Z₁.

If T₂ is negative, the time is 100 + T₂. In examples 4 and 8, they are 100 + (-10) or 90, and 100 + (-15) or 85, respectively. The date of Z₂ is one day less than the date of Z₁.
