Expanding tables with calculating form fields?

I'm trying to do a similar condition formula where it displays coordinates.
It's not showing them right though.
In the formula it's written "8°42'59.8"N 167°43'07.9"E"
It's displayed as N9°23'33.7NN


Is there a way to force it to show something exactly how it's written in the code?

The reason you're getting those results is because you have extraneous double quotes (representing seconds) in the coordinates. If you really need to represent seconds that way, use pairs of single quotes for them instead.
