The exact size of the iceberg will probably never be known, but according to early newspaper reports the height and length of the iceberg was approximated at 50 to 100 feet high and 200 to 400 feet long. However, these dimensions only relate to the estimated size above water. Around 85% of an iceberg is below water. Therefore multiplying the estimates you have an iceberg with a volume of between 810,00 and 3,240,000 square feet.
I'm not sure what you're asking so I'm going to interpret it as "when the Titanic struck and iceberg, how much of that iceberg was above water?". The iceberg that the Titanic struck looked small because only about a ninth (1/9) of the iceberg was above water. In reality, the iceberg was immense, with the rest (8/9) of it underwater. A portion of the berg that was underwater sunk the Titanic.

It is quite impossible to determine the exact size however researchers have suggested that it was between 50 to 100 feet high and 200 to 400 feet long.
