One sixtieth of a degree is called a minute. In the context of angular measurement, a minute is represented by the symbol ('). There are 60 minutes in a degree, similar to how there are 60 seconds in a minute of time.
If you are talking about angles, a second is one sixtieth of a minute. A minute is one sixtieth of a degree. Soooo, a second is one 3600th of a degree (60 times 60)
one three-hundred-and-sixtieth of the circumference of a circle
one sixtieth of an hour is one minute
One sixtieth can be written as the decimal value 0.0166667 or the fraction 1/60.

it is equal to one minute or sixty seconds
one three-hundred-and-sixtieth of the circumference of a circle
1 minute is equal to one sixtieth (or 1/60) of a degree.
An arc second is 1/60th of an arc minute and 1/3600th of a degree. This means there are 60 arc seconds in an arc minute, and 3600 arc seconds in a degree.
A unit of time equal to one-sixtieth of an hour, or 60 seconds, or an angular measure of an arc equal to one-sixtieth of a degree in a circle that has been subdivided into 360 degrees, or to 60 seconds of an arc.
