To find out how much further you need to dig, subtract the depth you have already dug from the total depth to the treasure.

Total depth to the treasure: 8.5 feet
Depth already dug: 5 feet

Now, subtract:

8.5 feet - 5 feet = 3.5 feet

So, you need to dig an additional 3.5 feet.

In the format you provided, the answer would be:

[3] [5]/[0] (which represents 3.5 feet)
