Answer 1

Answer:

217 cm below ground

Hope this helped :))

Step-by-step explanation:

If the human skull is 248 centimeters below ground and the leg bone is 67 cm above the skull then you would have to : 248 - 67 = 181

This means that the leg bone is 181 cm below the ground.

If the hand bone is 36 cm below the leg bone then you would have to add because you are going deeper. So : 181 + 36 = 217

This means that the hand bone was 217 cm below ground .
