Answer:

Latitude is from left to right or East to West (like a ladder)

Longitude is up and down or North to South (long line)

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you have 50 degrees East and 70 degrees North you follow the lines on the map or globe that you are looking at and use those directional terms to know which way to go.
