    To have a minus altitude or negative altitude you need to go below 0 (which is represented by the sea level).

    To get the difference between the mountain climber and submarine commander you add both altitudes as positive numbers: 4572 + 609 = 5181 m difference!

    Another ex.

    If a scuba diver is under the water, say 10 m hhe has a altitude of - 10m

    And a submarine is under at 100m that is a altitude of - 100m.

    The difference between the two is 100-10=90 m, not - 90m. The difference is always a positive number.
