Latitude is north/south of the equator measured in a series of degrees.
Longitude is east/west, measured by a system of degrees from a fixed spot.
So generaly at in a Latitude Longitude reading it will have a N or E.
For example 25 01'59.72" N that would be latitude because of the N (meaning North)
But in general I believe yes latitude is read first.
Lines of latitude and lines that run east-west on a map while lines of longitude are lines that run north-south on a map. There will be indications of the degrees on each of the lines.
Latitude is first (north or south) and longituse is second (east and west)
It doesn't matter, as long as you clearly identify which is which.
Latitude is usually given first. But it really doesn't matter,
as long as you make it very clear which is which.
Latitude is more often given first. But it really doesn't matter, just as long as the coordinates are clearly identified.
Yeahh. You always do latitude, then longitude. =)
Second, after latitude.
Latitude lays flat and spiders have long legs
It does not matter whether you look at the lines of latitude or longitude first. Usually coordinates are written latitude, then longitude. Good luck!
It is customary to provide latitude first and longitude second when plotting locations. Latitude represents how far north or south a location is from the equator, while longitude represents how far east or west of the prime meridian a location is.
Latitude comes first when specifying coordinates, followed by longitude. Latitude refers to how far north or south a point is from the Equator, while longitude indicates how far east or west a point is from the Prime Meridian.

False. When stating the absolute location of a place, latitude is always given before longitude. The format is typically latitude first, then longitude.
When giving a position it is usual to give latitude first.

For latitude the sextant, and later for longitude, the marine chronometer.
Well, what exactly do you need to know? Latitude is up and down (North and South) , and longitude is side to side (East to West). Just think of latitude fatitude for side to side, and LONGitude, for up and down. Latitude comes first.
