There is no such division.

You would not ask "Height is divided into multiples of how many inches?"

Some maps and globes show a line every so many degrees of longitude, and some don't.

The ones that do may mark a line every 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 or 30 degrees, etc.

You should not make the mistake of thinking that those are the only longitudes that exist,

or that there's some reason for dividing them up that way.
