Question

Choose the correct degrees and minutes for: 63.6°

Answer 1

you take the decimal portion 0.6 and multiply it by 60 (since there are 60 min in a degree) to get 0.6*60 = 36

so 36 minutes = 0.6 degrees

Answer 2

there are no decimal portions to the result we got of 36, so there are no seconds (or you could say there are 0 seconds)

Answer 3

this means

63.6 degrees =63 degrees, 36 minutes, 0 seconds

or simply

63.6 degrees =63 degrees, 36 minutes
