Answer:

95 ° 36 ′ 36 ′′

Explanation:

To convert 95.61 into degrees, minutes and seconds, you'll have to leave the whole units of degrees alone. You have to multiply the decimal by 60. The whole number becomes the minutes.

Then, you multiply 0.61 by 60, in which you get 36.6.

Take the remaining decimal and multiply by 60 and take the whole number portion to find the seconds.

Multiply 0.6 by 60. You get 36.

And lastly, Take the three sets of whole numbers and combine them, using the symbols for degrees ( ° ) , minutes ( ′ ) , and seconds ( ′′ ) .

This is how you get 95 ° 36 ′ 36 ′′.
