express ( 92 ^ { circ } 48 ^ { prime } ) as decimal degrees. round the answer to 2 decimal places if necessary.
93.8
92.18
92.8
92

Explanation:

Step1: Convert minutes to degrees

Since \(1^{\circ}=60'\), then \(48'=\frac{48}{60}\) degrees.
$$\frac{48}{60}=0.8$$

Step2: Add to the degree part

We have \(92^{\circ}+0.8^{\circ}\).
$$92 + 0.8=92.8$$

Answer:

\(92.8\) (corresponding to the third option \(92.8\))
