To find the time in Nairobi, we need to calculate the time difference between Mahan (60 W) and Nairobi (37 E).

There are 60 minutes in each degree of longitude, so the time difference between Mahan and Nairobi is:

60 W - 37 E = 97 degrees

Since each degree of longitude corresponds to 4 minutes of time difference, we can calculate the time difference as:

97 degrees * 4 minutes/degree = 388 minutes

Now, we need to convert 388 minutes into hours and minutes:

388 minutes ÷ 60 = 6 hours and 28 minutes

Since Nairobi is east of Mahan, we need to add the time difference to the local time in Mahan:

11:30 a.m. + 6 hours and 28 minutes = 5:58 p.m.

Therefore, the time in Nairobi is 5:58 p.m.
