To make that easy for the mathematically challenged, some compasses have a second arrow, or a box, that you can adjust for declination, which you can use to align the needle to, instead of using the North arrow.
Now the *truly* mathematically-challenged put the second needle in the wrong spot (leading to the ever-popular "controlled flight into terrain" maneuver).

So there you have it... the first documented moral compass.
Good one.
