Explanation

Amsterdam is the city that has a 4° east longitude. Longitude is a geographical coordinate that represents how far east or west a location is from the prime meridian, which passes through Greenwich, London. The prime meridian is assigned a longitude of 0°, and as we move east from there, the longitudes increase. Therefore, Amsterdam, located approximately 4° east of the prime meridian, falls into the category of cities with a 4 east longitude.
