There is no such thing as "the latitude closest" to something.
You would not ask "What length on the ruler is closest to your height ?"
You would ask "What is your height ?"
Similarly, when discussing the location of a place, we ask "What is its latitude ?",
and the answer is "Its latitude is ..... ".
When you're comfortable with this concept, we'll introduce you to 'longitude'.
