Here's why:
* Mexico's Northernmost Point: The northernmost point of Mexico is near the US border, roughly 32 degrees north of the equator.
* Mexico's Southernmost Point: The southernmost point of Mexico is in Chiapas, around 14 degrees north of the equator.
Therefore, the distance between Mexico and the equator varies from about 14 degrees to 32 degrees north.
To be more precise, you would need to specify the exact location within Mexico you are interested in.
