Explanation:

The reason time zones are 15 degrees wide is because there are 24 hours and 360/24 = 15. As you move east by 15 degrees the sun’s position in the sky changes relative to us and it looks an hour later in the day, so we advance our clocks to match the sun’s position.

So every 15° eastward one hour ahead.
