Question

Me Garcia is at an elevation of 141 feet above sea level. If he drops down 158 feet what is his new elevation

Answer 1

-17 feet below sea level

Explanation:

Garcia is at an elevation of 141 feet, and drops 158 feet. Subtracting 141 from 158 gets 17, therefore the answer is -17. A more straightway option to do this is 141 - 158 which gives you the answer.
