Question

Mt. Everest the highest elevation in Asia is 29028 feet above sea level the Dead Sea the lowest elevation is 1312 feet below sea level what is the difference between these two elevations

Answer 1

The difference between these two elevations is 30,340 feet.

Explanation:

To find the answer you would take the first elevation: 29,028 and subtract it by negative 1,312 because the the second elevation is below sea level which would be negative.

29,028--1,312 but because you're subtracting a negative, it would be the same thing if you would take the minus and the negative and make it plus a positive.

29,028+1,312=30,340
