To find the longitude of a place given its local time and the corresponding GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), you need to calculate the time difference between the two and convert it into a longitude measurement.
In this case, the time difference between local time (12:00 noon) and GMT (5:00 am) is 7 hours. Since each time zone corresponds to a 15-degree longitude difference, you can find the longitude of place X by calculating:
Longitude = 15 degrees * Time difference (in hours)
Longitude = 15 degrees * 7 hours
Longitude = 105 degrees
Therefore, place X is located at 105 degrees longitude.
