That's exactly what Google expects, decimal degrees

First be sure your source data really is in decimal degrees, and not
in DMS degrees/minutes/seconds or DD degrees/decimal minutes.  This
may not be obvious in say GPS derived data.

Then you need to know the coordinate reference systems.  It is
possible to have decimal degrees from a diferent baseline, Google
always expects WGS84.  Again something like a GPS may be giving you a
localised version.
