Question

Puncak Jaya, New Guinea, is 5040 m above sea level. Lake Assal, Djibouti, is 156 m below sea level. What is the difference in elevations of these two locations?

Answer 1

Answer:

Puncak Jaya, New Guinea, is 5040 m above sea level = +5040m

Lake Assal, Djibouti, is 156 m below sea level = -156m

the difference in elevations of these two locations = 5040 -(-156) = 5040+156m = 5196m
