   Show answer

   Answer: (4) China

   సమాధానం: (4) చైనా

   China stretches across more than 60° of longitude, so it spans five geographical time zones and had an official five-zone system until 1949, when it switched to a single Beijing Time; Canada has six time zones, while Sweden and India have one each. Because China officially keeps only one time zone today, the question is ambiguous, so TSLPRB's final key kept (4) but also gave the mark to candidates who left it blank.
