German map coordinates

Hello,
I have just been researching an aerial engagement between a BV 222 and a PB4Y (US Navy Liberator) on Oct 22, 1943. The Liberator was shot down with the loss of the entire crew. It went down at 24 West/7661. Does anyone know how to reference this on a regular world map?
Thanks very much in advance.
Best regards,
Ray Bakerjian
