Answer:

8°4'65" = 8 degrees 4 minutes 65 seconds

8° is nothing but 8 degrees

4′ is 4 minutes and

65″ is 65 seconds

Explanation:

Earth is divided into two hemispheres.

N means the latitude of the northern hemisphere and S means the latitude of the southern hemisphere.

E means Longitude towards the right of the Prime Meridian. And W means longitude of the left side of the prime meridian.

8°4′N means 8-degree latitude in the Northern hemisphere. And 4′ means 4 minutes and 65″ means 65 seconds.

The globe is divided into a North and South half, by the equator. N means North, S means South of the Equator;

° is the symbol of degrees,

that of minutes.

is the symbol of seconds.

Counting from the Equator to each pole there are 90 degrees: so 8° is 8 divided by 90 of the whole distance to the North Pole.

Each degree is divided into 60 minutes,

4’ means 4 divided by 60 parts towards the North.

There are seconds 65.

So we have a measure of 8°4’65” N.
