The highest elevation in a small country occurs on a mountain 1232 meters above sea level, while the lowest elevation in the same country occurs at -27 meters (below sea level). What is the difference in elevation between the highest and lowest points?

Respuesta :

Answer: 1259 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Highest elevation = 1232 meters

Lowest elevation = -27 meters

The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest points will be:

= 1232 - (-27)

= 1232 + 27

= 1259 meters
