The correct answer is B) 11956W. The longitude 119°56.3'W should be written in the format DDDMM, where DDD represents the degrees and MM represents the minutes. In this case, 119 degrees and 56.3 minutes would be written as 11956W. The other options are incorrect because: A) 119.9W does not accurately represent the minutes component of the longitude. C) 120°W is not the exact longitude provided in the question. D) V19.9 is not a standard format for expressing longitude coordinates.
