6 watertight compartments
5 water tight compartments were ruptured. Making the gash a total of 300 feet long.
The ship was designed and built to stay afloat if four watertight compartments were breached, but the iceberg breached five compartments, so the ship couldn't stay afloat
Because it was designed and built to be able to stay afloat with 4 watertight compartments breached, but the iceberg breached 5 compartments, which was one too many,
5 compartments were ruptered by the iceberg, which is one more that the Titanic could stand
6 watertight compartments
5 water tight compartments were ruptured. Making the gash a total of 300 feet long.
When the Titanic was hit, five of her compartments were ruptured along its starboard side.
I ThiNk it was 4-6 but I'm not sure
The ship was designed and built to stay afloat if four watertight compartments were breached, but the iceberg breached five compartments, so the ship couldn't stay afloat
I believe it was 5, but if only 4 had filled up, the ship would not have sunk.
Because it was designed and built to be able to stay afloat with 4 watertight compartments breached, but the iceberg breached 5 compartments, which was one too many,
It was called the Unsinkable Ship because it was designed to stay afloat with 4 watertight compartments breached, but 5 compartments were breached when the ship collided with the iceberg
5 compartments were ruptered by the iceberg, which is one more that the Titanic could stand
The Titanic was named The Unsinkable Ship because it was designed to stay afloat if a maximum of four watertight compartments were breached. But when the ship hit the iceberg, five compartments were breached
Titanic's iceberg was about 400 miles south of Newfoundland,
I don't know the exact measurements, but it sliced open five of its watertight compartments. The compartments are designed to keep the ship afloat if one or two get punctured, but not five or six or whatever.
