Currituck County Airport is approximately located at which coordinates?

• A. 36°24'N-76°01'W
• B. 47°21'N-101°01'W
• C. 47°35'30"N-100°43'00"W
• D. 47°33'N-116°11'W

Answer: (A)

Reading coordinates shows where a place sits on the map by latitude (north-south) and longitude (east-west). For U.S. locations, a latitude around 36°N and a longitude around 76°W puts you in the northeastern part of North Carolina near the Atlantic coast.

Currituck County lies in that area, so coordinates of about 36°24'N and 76°01'W put you right in or near the airport’s vicinity. The other options place you far away in the northern plains or the western United States, not North Carolina.

So the coordinates that match Currituck County Airport are 36°24'N, 76°01'W.
