To convert $310.04^\circ$ to D° M' S'' form, first note that the degrees are 310. The decimal part, 0.04, is converted to minutes and seconds. Since there are 60 minutes in a degree, $0.04 \times 60 = 2.4$ minutes. The decimal part of the minutes, 0.4, is converted to seconds: $0.4 \times 60 = 24$ seconds. Thus, the conversion is $310^\circ 2' 24''$.
