     162
   +207
=   369
     
      
Okay, so it says he descends 285 feet after he's climbed 369 feet. That means he needs to descend a bit more to reach 453 feet, which we'll just call 0 for now. First, we need to do some subtraction:

  369
- 285
=  84  

Okay, we know he needs to descend 84 feet to get to his starting point.
So your answer is C
