Does the hours of sunlight follow the rule of 12ths? I suspect that it

someone might now the answer off the top of their head.
My first reaction is no, but perhaps I'm missing your intended
meaning.
The "Rule of 12ths" is commonly used to estimate tide height. How
does that relate to hours of sunlight?
Hours of sunlight depends on both latitude and time of year, largest
seasonal variation is at the poles, smallest variation near the
equator.
