2nd place is on 80 degree west of the 1st place.
The time difference for 1 degree is 4 min.
So time difference between two places is 80*4=320 min=5 hr 20 min.
2nd place is on the west of 1st place so the time of 2nd place in going slow.
The time of 2nd place at the time of take off was (2am-5 hr 20 min)= 8:40 pm (Previous day).
After 10 hr ie at the time of landing time of 2nd place will be (8:40pm+10 hr)=6:40 am.
The plane landed that day at 6:40am.

After 10 hrs the time at starting place will be 12 noon.
The plane crossed 80 degrees (70+10) that is 320 minutes.
so time at the landing place local time will be 12 noon - 320 minutes = 6.40 a.m

Time difference between 10E and 70w =4hrs(longitudinal difference/15 .That is 60/15)
local time at 70W when time at 10E =10pm(2am-4hrs;Time decreases from east to west)
Time at 70W after 10hrs =8am(10pm+10hrs).

after three days at 2 am..
36-18=18 degree longitudinal gap..
18*4=72 four min per longitude going to west..
72/24=3 days.. at same time
