I tried to type this as clear as possible, Lol can someone help-w

The positions of two divers from the water's surface after a dive are shown:

Jack: −35 feet
Simon: −40 feet

Which inequality explains why Jack is closer to the surface than Simon?

A. Because −35 > −40, so −35 is closer to 0 than −40
B. Because −35 −40, so −35 is farther from 0 than −40
D. Because −35 < −40, so −35 is farther from 0 than −40
