I knew it involved maths but would have needed a load more time to be able to work it out. :-(

Great question but written in the description is an overly complicated way of calculating this! Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours. Simply divide 360 by 24 to get the correct answer!

Any chance those giving the answers could also include kilometres (in brackets), for your Aussie quiz players...just a thought.
