Question

plz also explain me the six figure grid

Answer 1

When giving a four-figure grid reference, you should always give the easting’s number first and the northings number second, very much like when giving the reading of a graph in school, where you give the x coordinate first followed by the y.
An easy way to remember this is that to get the first number, you go along the corridor (horizontal, x axis, easting’s) and then up the stairs (vertical, y axis, northings).


For example, the number 2 in the diagram below is square 19 across and square 45 up and therefore, the four-figure grid reference is ‘1945’.


The numbered squares on the diagram above have the following four-figure grid references:
1 = 18 45
2 = 19 45
3 = 18 44
4 = 19 44
