Question

Use integers to represent the values in the statement.

The highest elevation in a country is a mountain, with an altitude of 14,316 feet. The lowest elevation in the country is a valley, with an altitude of 297 feet below sea level.

What is the INTEGER that represents the mountain's altitude, measured in feet?

Answer 1

The mountain has an altitude of 14,316 feet. This means that the integer that represents the mountains height is 14,316. An integer is a whole number, which means that our answer is the whole amount of the height of the mountain. This question may seem tricky but we are already given our answer.

I also think that your question may not fully be answered so if it was to compare the two numbers. The peak of the mountain sits 14,613 feet tall than the bottom of the valley.

If you just need the integer ignore the second paragraph, but the mountain is 14,316 feet.
