The equation of time is 8m 00s. The mean Sun is ahead of the apparent Sun. If you are 2°W of the central meridian of your time zone, when will the apparent Sun cross your meridian?

The equation of time is the difference between apparent solar time (sundial time) and mean solar time (clock time). When the mean Sun is ahead of the apparent Sun, the apparent Sun crosses the meridian after 1200 Local Mean Time, giving 1216.
