Why do you think that saliors sail at different latitudes when they travel east or west?

Sailors sail at different latitudes when traveling east or west to take advantage of prevailing wind patterns and ocean currents. This can help them optimize their route for speed and efficiency, as well as avoid adverse weather conditions. Additionally, sailing at different latitudes allows sailors to navigate around obstacles such as islands or dangerous coastlines.
