Question 862Navigation General

The correct answer is D) 99647, 70025. The latitude of 64°42'N is encoded as 99647, with the first two digits representing the degrees (99 for 99 degrees) and the last three digits representing the minutes (647 for 42 minutes). The longitude of 02°28'W is encoded as 70025, with the first two digits representing the degrees (70 for 70 degrees) and the last three digits representing the minutes (025 for 28 minutes). The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the latitude and longitude in the format required for the WS Form B-80 used in the Voluntary Observing Ship Program.
