General Navigation USCG Question #2227 (Set 68)

What is the equivalent of 2°52' in time units?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — 11 min. 28 sec.

Using standard conversion where 1 degree of arc equals 4 minutes of time and 1 minute of arc equals 4 seconds of time, multiply 2 degrees by 4 to get 8 minutes, and 52 minutes by 4 seconds (208s = 3m 28s), totaling 11 minutes 28 seconds.
