find the difference of an elevation of 30 feet below sea level and an elevation of 118 feet above sea level

ans.. -30 - 118 = -148

1 answer

well, generally the difference is the larger number minus the smaller.

For example, the difference between 5 and 12 is 12-5 = 7, not -7.

So, for this problem, I'd say that the difference is 118-(-30) = 148

Other than that, it looks good.
