Answer 1

To find the water level at the end of summer, you need to add the additional drop in water level to the current water level.

1. The current water level is 112 meters below sea level.
2. During the summer, the river drops another 213 meters below sea level.

To find the total decrease, you add the two amounts:

\[ 112 + 213 = 325 \]

Thus, the water level at the end of summer is 325 meters below sea level.

The final answer is:

The water level is 325 meters below sea level.
