Question

A hiker is 345 feet above sea level and a diver is 35 feet below sea level. How far apart are they?

Answer 1

380 feet apart you add 345+35 to get your answer

Answer 2

Answer: 310

Explanation:

You would think it’s 380 because 345 + 35 but since it says the diver is BELOW, that means it’s -35 so, -35 + 345, and the 345 stays as a positive number because they’re above the sea level. 345 + -35, hope this helped.
