121 degree 22' 36" s the same as degrees

We are asked to solve for the degree equivalent of the given 121 degrees 22' 36". In order for us to solve this, we need to know the conversion such as:

1 degree = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

Solving 22' to degrees, we have it:

22' * (degrees / 60 minute) = 0.3667 degrees

Solving for 36" to minutes and then to degrees, we have it:

36" * (' / 60") = 0.6'

0.6' * (degrees / 60 minutes) = 0.01 degrees

We need to add all the results in degrees such as:

121 + 0.3667 + 0.01 = 121.3767 degrees

The answer is 121.38°.
