It takes 24 hours for the Earth to rotate through 360°.
To calculate how many hours it takes to rotate through 1° of the prime meridian, we can use the formula:
Number of hours = Total hours / Total degrees
Number of hours = 24 hours / 360°
Number of hours = 1/15 hours
Therefore, it takes 1/15 hours or 4 minutes to rotate through 1° of the prime meridian.
