Answer:


-8 floors and
5 floors.

Explanation:

We have been given that you go down 8 floors in an elevator. This means that our elevation is decreasing.

We know that negative numbers represent decreasing quantities, therefore, your elevation would be
-8 floors.

We are also told that your friend goes up 5 floors in a elevator .

We know that positive numbers represent increasing quantities, therefore, your friend's elevation would be
5 floors.
