of the way down?(

1 answer

To find the diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down, we need to first calculate how far down he has gone.

2/3 of the way down translates to (2/3) * 97.2 feet = 64.8 feet.

The diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down would then be 97.2 feet - 64.8 feet = 32.4 feet below the surface.
