First, convert 0.125° into minutes and seconds.
Convert Between DMS and Decimal Degree Form A. Write ° in DMS form. First, convert 0.125° into minutes and seconds. ° = 329° + 1° = 60' = 329° + 7.5' Simplify. Next, convert 0.5' into seconds. ° = 329° + 7' + 1' = 60" = 329° + 7' + 30" Simplify. Therefore, ° can be written as 329°7'30". Answer: 329°7'30" Example 1
