Each degree is equal to 60 minutes, each minute is equal to 60 seconds; to convert seconds to minutes, divide the seconds by 60 and add to the minutes.
Ex. (Assume the asterisk (*) is a degree sign)
51* 43' 20"
51* + 43' + (20/60)'
51* + 43' + (1/3)'
Answer: 51* 43 (1/3)'
Hopefully this is answering the question you had. If you want to convert Minutes and seconds into decimal degrees, use either formula below:
((Seconds/60) + Minutes)/60 + Degrees
or
Degrees + (Minutes/60) + (seconds/3600)
Perhaps you mean arcsecond. A full circle has 360° (360 degrees); a degree is divided into 60 minutes (or arcminutes), and a minute is divided into 60 seconds (or arcseconds). Multiply everything together to get the amount of seconds in a circle.
7.045 seconds x 1 minute/ 60 seconds x 1 hour/ 60 minutes = .0019569 hours
minutes: 36,600 minutes seconds:2,196,000
Either: 60/75 = 0.8 minutes per question or 75/60 = 1.25 questions per minute.
2 hours and 42 minutes; or, 9720 seconds
d degrees + m minutes + s seconds = d + m/60 + s/3600 degrees in decimal form.
Some scientific caculators can convert degrees minutes and seconds into decimal degrees and vice versa as for example 60045'18'' = 60.755
Degrees: ° Minutes: ' Seconds: "
12 degrees. There are 60 mins in a degree, so 0.65*60 is 39 mins 12 degrees, 39 minutes.
Divide that by 60 to get degrees. If you want degrees and minutes, do an integer division by 60; the remainder will be the minutes. Seconds will of course be zero in this case.
Works on the same principle as "60 seconds = 1 minute and 60 minutes = 1 hour (or degree in this case)... So for example: 2 degrees, 45 Minutes and 20 seconds is worked as follows: Now, 20 seconds = 0.33 minutes (i.e. 20/60); add to 45 minutes to get 45.33 minutes.. 45.33 minutes = 45.33/60 degrees = 0.7555 degrees. Therefore, final answer is 2 + 0.7555 = 2.7555 degrees.... Hope this helps!!
Earth location points are given in Degrees Longitude and Degrees Latitude Traditionally they are expressed in Degrees, minutes, seconds, 1 degree = 60 minutes 1 minute = 60 seconds > Conversion Example: 15 Degrees 25 minutes = 15 + 25/60 degrees = 15.4167 degrees (decimal) 15 degrees 25 minutes 10 seconds = 15 + 25/60 + 10/3600 degrees = 15.4194 degrees (decimal)
It designates a point on earth that is 38 degrees 53 minutes 23 seconds north of the equator and 77 degrees 00 minutes 27 seconds west of the Greenwich Meridian
what is the longitude and latitude of Washington DC in degrees, minutes, and seconds
The latitude and longitude are input in degrees, so you might need to convert to degrees from degrees:minutes:seconds. There are 60 seconds in 1 minute and 60 minutes in 1 degree. So, for example: 65:45:36 south latitude converts to -(65 degrees + (45 minutes * (1 degree/60 minutes)) + (36 seconds * (1 minute/60 seconds) * (1 degree/60 minutes))) = -65.76 degrees latitude
Degrees, minutes and seconds.
Latitude, which is measured in degrees, minutes and seconds.
