Given,
The bird is at top of a 15-foot tall tree.
The bird dives down 6 3/5 feet to a branch.
We need to find how far is the bird above the ground after the bird dives down.
Find the bird's distance from the ground before diving down.
= 15 foot
Find how many feet the bird dives down.
= 6 3/5 feet
= 33/5 feet
= 6.6 foot
Find the bird's distance above the ground after diving down.
= Bird's distance from the ground before diving down - Distance the bird dives down.
= 15 - 6.6
