The latitude of 40.28882° in degrees, minutes, and seconds is 40°17'19.75".
Since 40.28882° = 40° + 0.28882°, we convert the decimal part to minutes.
Since 1° = 60', then
0.28882° = 0.28882° × 60'/1°
0.28882° = 17.3292'
Since 17.3929' = 17' + 0.3929', we convert the decimal part to seconds.
Since 1' = 60'', then
0.3929' = 0.3929' × 60"/1'
0.3929' = 19.752"
≅ 19.75" to the nearest hundredth of a second.
So, 40.28882° = 40° + 0.28882°
= 40° + 17' + 0.3929'
= 40° + 17' + 19.75"
= 40°17'19.75"
So, the latitude of 40.28882° in degrees, minutes, and seconds is 40°17'19.75".
