1. find the time difference between california and argentina. use the world time zone map in the companion material to answer this question.

argentina is 5 hours ahead of california.
argentina is 11 hours ahead of california.
california is 11 hours ahead of argentina.
california is 5 hours ahead of argentina.

Explanation:

To determine the time difference, we know California is in the Pacific Time Zone (UTC - 8 or UTC - 7 during daylight saving) and Argentina is in the Argentina Time Zone (UTC - 3). The time difference calculation: |(-3) - (-8)| = 5 (when California is UTC - 8) or |(-3) - (-7)| = 4, but typically the standard time difference (considering non - daylight saving for simplicity or the general time zone difference) shows Argentina is 5 hours ahead of California (since Argentina is east of California, so ahead in time).

Answer:

Argentina is 5 hours ahead of California.
