Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Our mountain is at an elevation of 10,940. Our valley is at an elevation of -214 as it is below sea level, which is 0.

We want to find the difference. This means we subtract.

10940-(-214)=10940+214=11154

Therefore, there is an elevation difference if 11154 between the mountain and valley.

Have a wonderful day! :D
