To find the diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down, we need to find 2/3 of 97.2 feet.
2/3 * 97.2 = 64.8
This means the diver would be 64.8 feet below the surface. However, since below the surface is considered a negative elevation, the answer is -64.8 ft.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B: -64.8 ft.
