Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — 337.5°

The compass card is divided into 360 degrees. North is 000°, East is 090°, South is 180°, and West is 270°. NNW lies halfway between North (000°) and Northwest (315°). Calculating the midpoint (000 + 315) / 2 yields 337.5°, which is the standard bearing for a NNW heading.
