To convert an angle measured in degrees into degrees, minutes, and seconds, follow these steps: First, separate the whole number of degrees. For , simply note it’s 459400 degrees. Next, to find the minutes, take the decimal part (which is 0) and multiply it by 60. Since there are no decimal parts, you can skip to seconds. For the seconds, repeat with the remaining decimal part after converting minutes, which also remains 0. Thus, the final answer is .

If you’re ever stuck, remember that 1 degree equals 60 minutes and 1 minute equals 60 seconds, so keep your conversions and calculations straight! Check your math twice to catch any potential slip-ups when converting these units; it’s easy to confuse minutes and seconds or miscalculate their conversions!
