Question 851038: James enters a cave and climbs to a height 30 feet above the entrance level. Then he descends 210 feet. How far below the entrance did James go ? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Think of it in terms of money. It's easier for most of us. If someone gives you 30 rupees and then demands 210 rupees back, what is the net gain/loss? 210 - 30 or 180.

James descended 180 feet. Hopefully he brought a flashlight, water, and oxygen.
