Correct Answer - Option 2 : 0°

The Greenwich longitude is used to calculate the international time.

Longitude is the angular distance of a place from the Prime Meridian.

  • They are the imaginary vertical lines running from the North Pole to the South Pole.
  • The lines of Longitudes are also known as Meridians.
  • The meridian that runs through Greenwich, England, is internationally accepted as the line of 0 degrees longitude, or prime meridian. 

Thus, it is clear that the longitude of Greenwich is extended at 0°.
