What is the number of latitude degrees between place A (55°N, 75°W) and place B (40°S, 75°W)?
The number of latitude degrees between place A (55°N, 75°W) and place B (40°S, 75°W) is 95 degrees.
This is calculated by adding the absolute values of the two latitude coordinates, since one is in the northern hemisphere and the other is in the southern hemisphere.
|55| + |40| = 95
