Considering the moon was at its highest today at 12:00, and will be at its highest again in ~29 days at 12:00, what time will the moon be at its highest tomorrow, which is 1/29 of its cycle?
The question then turns into dividing 24 hours into 29 parts, or about 48 minutes per day, so 12:48.
Bonus points (not in math) go to whoever knows that a tide can also come when the moon is at its lowest, or half that time, or 0:24 or so.
