There are 40 time zones, consisting of the following:
UTC-12, UTC-11, UTC-10, UTC-9:30, UTC-9, UTC-8, UTC-7, UTC-6, UTC-5, UTC-4:30, UTC-4, UTC-3:30, UTC-3, UTC-2, UTC-1, UTC, UTC+1, UTC+2, UTC+3, UTC+3:30, UTC+4, UTC+4:30, UTC+5, UTC+5:30, UTC+5:45, UTC+6, UTC+6:30, UTC+7, UTC+8, UTC+8:45, UTC+9, UTC+9:30, UTC+10, UTC+10:30, UTC+11, UTC+11:30, UTC+12, UTC+12:45, UTC+13, UTC+14
24, one for every hour
Well Actually there are 40 time zones 16 of which cover either a 15 min 30 min 0r 45 min intervals. It makes perfect sense to assume that there are only 24 but it is really just an assumption. it is always better to check facts than to assume.
24
Actually, there are 40, not 24. Time zones tend to follow the boundaries of countries and their subdivisions, not 15 degree meridians.
there are 40 time zones in the world, each approxamently 111km(69miles) apart and are also about 15 degrees wide (360 divided by 24 equals 15)

24, One for each hour of the day.
There are 39 time zones because of the sun and how the Earth lines up with it.
The earth is divided into 24 times zones. Divide 360 degrees by 24 and you will get the measure in degrees.

The earth is divided into 40 formal time zones, not 24 as might commonly be expected. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_zones for a complete list. Note that the number of time zones also varies with the season as some regions adopt daylight savings time (DST) while others (in the same time zone) choose not to use DST. This can lead to a seasonal increase or decrease in the total number of time zones. According to PHC there are 24 Major time zones
The earth is divided into 24 times zones. Divide 360 degrees by 24 and you will get the measure in degrees.
Hours are arbitrary, man-made divisions of time. There are 24 time zones on earth--the result of dividing the earth into 24 longitudinal segments.
