Refer to Jeppesen GSPRM Chart "E LO 2".
Given:
Position A: N54°53´, W005°18´
Position B: N55°18´, W003°35´
Find the initial track for the flight from A to B and determine the distance from position A to the point of crossing meridian W004°00':
1- locate the two positions on the map.
2- calculate the track from position A to B : 67˚ T
3- Measure the distance from Position A across the line till intercepting longitude 004˚W, refer the distance to the difference between any two consecutive latitudes: 48 NM.
As we don’t have (67˚ T and 48 NM) so we apply variation (3˚ W):
Correct Answer: 070˚(M), 48 NM
