i don't get this! on my homework it says to find the long and lat of dublin butit dosn't say anything like 53.12 and 6.6 it gives the choises of 6 east and 49 north and some others that arn't close to that at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mrs right where did u get that answer?[/b][/quote]

Have a look at an atlas and see where the lines go - where is the Greenwich Meridian (0deg longitude), where is the equator? Where is London?
About what distance is represented by 1degree longitude?

I can tell you now without looking at a map that Dublin is NOT 49N and 6E.

Dublin is west of London last time I looked. Greenwich in east London is on the Greenwich Meridian (what a coincidence ). Therefore Dublin's longitude is West not East.

London is about 51deg North. Dublin is north of London.
Leeds is about 54deg North (I grew up there, sorry don't have the exact figure handy). Dublin is south of Leeds.
Therefore Dublin must be between 51deg and 54deg north.
