hey mate here is your answer :-
Given total hight above sea level = 8848 m
mans descending speed = 473 m/hour
so as we know ..
in 1 hour he descended =473m.
so in 16 hour he descended= per hour speed* total time traveled...
so =473*16=7568 m.he travelled in 16 hours
and for knowing his present hight...
p hight =total height- descended height
=8848-7568=1280m
hope it helps
