hi David
The whole units of degrees will remain the same (i.e. in 121.135° longitude,
start with 121°).
Multiply the decimal by 60 (i.e. .135 * 60 = 8.1).
The whole number becomes the minutes (8').
Take the remaining decimal and multiply by 60. (i.e. .1 * 60 = 6).
The resulting number becomes the seconds (6"). Seconds can remain as a
decimal.
Take your three sets of numbers and put them together, using the symbols for
degrees (°), minutes (‘), and seconds (") (i.e. 121°8'6" longitude)
