Consider the following statements:
I. Anadyr in Siberia and Nome in Alaska are a few kilometers from each other, but when people are waking up and getting set for breakfast in these cities, it would be different days.
II. When it is Monday in Anadyr, it is Tuesday in Nome.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Statement I: Correct ✅ Anadyr (Russia) and Nome (Alaska, USA) are indeed geographically close — separated by the Bering Strait. Despite their proximity, they fall on opposite sides of the International Date Line (IDL). Therefore, when it’s breakfast time in both cities, it could be different calendar days — e.g., Sunday in Nome and Monday in Anadyr. Correct Statement. Statement II: Incorrect ❌ It says: “When it is Monday in Anadyr, it is Tuesday in Nome.” That’s factually incorrect. Because Anadyr (Russia) is ahead of Nome (USA), not behind. So if it is Monday in Anadyr, it would be Sunday in Nome, not Tuesday. ❌ Incorrect Statement.
