Inferred
Definition:
  1. noun. A time zone is a region of the Earth that has the same standard time. It is used to simplify the international coordination of time by dividing the world into 24 time zones, each about 15 degrees of longitude wide, roughly following the lines of longitude. Time zones are based on the rotation of the Earth and the concept of 24 hours in a day. The primary purpose of time zones is to ensure that clocks in different regions are set to the same time or have a consistent offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). GPT3.5
