Default Decimal numbers in Excel

Is there a way to separate and use the numbers, to the left of and to the
right of the decimal point in a single cell?
I am trying to convert angles given in decimal form (i.e. 27.286ツー), to the
older form of degrees, minutes and seconds (i.e. 27ツー1710), then store the
degrees in one cell, the minutes in another cell, and the seconds in a third.
I can make it work the OTHER way with multiplication and addition, because
that doesnt require the SEPARATION of a number.
