Joshua solved this problem. He says the answer is 489 yards. Joshua had 359 yards of his fishing line in the water. Then he reeled in 113 yards of his line from the water. How much of Joshua’s fishing line was still in the water? Solve the problem. Is Joshua’s answer reasonable?

Joshua now has 359-113 or 246 yards still in the water.
Joshua’s answer is wrong because he did not add any more fishing line to the water.
