-7 because -10 plus -3 is -13 then plus 6

Here is you're answer:

This is a integer problem all you have to do is add negative three to negative ten subtract that by six. Make sure to make a equation out of it.


  • -10 + -3 - 6

  • -10 + -3 = -13

  • -13 + 6

  • -13 + 6 = -7

  • = -7m

Therefore the level a diver is now swimming is "-7m."

Hope this helps!
