How many kilometers north of the equator is Washington?

This is a fantastic question ! It presents learning possibilities, for all of us,in a variety of subjects, above and beyond anything you ever imagined.I guarantee it.-- First, for you, a Social Studies lesson:George Washington, the "father of our country" and the first president of the USA,became so popular and so well-known in his lifetime that many different places usedhis name. So, when you talk about Farendunk, Catspaw, or Tweedledee, you canprobably get away without mentioning the state it's in. But when you mentionWashington, it's always a good idea to clarify which one you're talking about.-- Next, also for you, a Geography lesson:Cities, towns, and states spread over a good deal of land. It's not possible fora whole state, city, or town to be the same distance from anything.-- Now, what I have learned:What you're capable of if you get in too deep before you decide to turn back.-- Finally, here is the answer to your question. It's definitely somewhere on this list:Washington, Arkansas . . .The center of the intersection of Franklin St and US-278, at 33.7749° north latitude,is 3,752.4 km north of the equator.
