Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert 12 degrees, 34 minutes and 56 seconds to degrees.

12 degrees will remain as 12 degree.

To convert 43 minutes to degree, it would be

60 minutes = 1 degree

43 minutes = 43/60 = 0.7167 degrees

To convert 56 seconds to degree, it would be

3600 seconds = 1 degree

56 seconds = 56/3600 = 0.01556 degrees

Therefore,

12°34'56” to decimal degree form would be

12 + 0.7167 + 0.01556 = 12.73226

Rounding up to four decimal places, it becomes

12.7323 degrees
