Given:

  • 0x12E7 represents 48°39'
  • 0x3026 represents 123°26'

What is the most efficient way to convert the representation of those latitudes into two variables:

  • hours
  • minutes

Where the first example would be:

  • hours = 48
  • minutes = 39

And the second example:

  • hours = 123
  • minutes = 26

Thank you!
