We can't be sure of exactly where it was on the surface when it
hit the iceberg, or when it broke up and began to sink. But today,
the middle of the bow (front) section rests on the bottom at 41.7272° north latitude
49.9484° west longitude, while the middle of the stern (rear) section is at 41.7344° north latitude
49.9482° west longitude.
The Titanic wreck lies at approximately 41.7325° N latitude and 49.9469° W longitude in the North Atlantic Ocean.

Why do you use the system of longitude and latitude what happen if you stop using these coordinates?
Longitude and latitude coordinates are used because they provide a standardized way to pinpoint any location on Earth's surface. If we were to stop using these coordinates, it would make navigation, mapping, and communication more difficult and less precise. It would also disrupt many systems that rely on these coordinates, such as GPS.
What is the latitude and longitude for the Titanic?
Latitude: 41° 46' NorthLongitude: 50° 14' WestWas Titanic's last reported position when it sank.The Titanic is now resting 12,000 feet (3,700 m) below the surface where the water pressure is over 6,500 pounds per square inch at the following locations (it has broken into two):-Bow - 41° 43' 57" North 49° 56' 49" WestStern - 41° 43' 35" North 49° 56' 54" WestThe last reported position given when sinking was obviously 13.5 miles out as we know for certain where the wreck is now. (It would/could not have drifted that far when sinking).
What area is at 48 degrees east longitude and 20 degrees south latitude?
The North Atlantic Ocean. If you were to go a bit further north you would be near where the Titanic is resting. The location 40 N 50W is northeast of Bermuda, and southeast of Newfoundland. It is due north of the Sargasso Sea, an ocean gyre and area of doldrums (light variable winds), named for the floating clumps of brown seaweed often found there.
