I really don't think "latitude" is the coordinate you want, but I'll answer as if it is.

-- The southernmost point of the [48 contiguous] US is Ballast Key in Florida, at 24.52° North latitude.

-- The northernmost point of Africa is near Bizerte in Tunisia, at 37.33° North latitude.

-- So the [48 contiguous] US are not separated at all from Africa in latitude. In fact,

they overlap by about 12.8 degrees of latitude ... a little over 880 miles !

-- Hawaii, at 18.93° - 22.24° North latitude, is completely within the latitude range of Africa.

-- The southernmost point of Alaska, at the southern tip of Dall Island, is 54.66° North latitude ...

17.33° (about 1,200 miles) farther from the equator than the northernmost point in Africa.
