Convert Arcminute (Minute Angle) to Degree
Unit definitions
Arcminute (Minute Angle)
$\frac{1}{60}$ of a degree is an arcminute.
Degree
The degree is a unit of angle commonly used in daily life. One full circle consists of $360$ degrees.
How to convert Arcminute (Minute Angle) to Degree
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{\text{Angle}_{\text{′}}}{60}$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $40.0\ \text{′}$ to $\text{°}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{40.0}{60}$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = 0.666667$$
$$\therefore \ 40.0\ \text{′} = 0.666667 \ \text{°}$$
Example 2
Convert $90.0\ \text{′}$ to $\text{°}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{90.0}{60}$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = 1.5$$
$$\therefore \ 90.0\ \text{′} = 1.5 \ \text{°}$$
Example 3
Convert $105.0\ \text{′}$ to $\text{°}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{105.0}{60}$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = 1.75$$
$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{′} = 1.75 \ \text{°}$$
Example 4
Convert $140.0\ \text{′}$ to $\text{°}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{140.0}{60}$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = 2.333333$$
$$\therefore \ 140.0\ \text{′} = 2.333333 \ \text{°}$$
Example 5
Convert $165.0\ \text{′}$ to $\text{°}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = \frac{165.0}{60}$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{°}} = 2.75$$
$$\therefore \ 165.0\ \text{′} = 2.75 \ \text{°}$$
