so you do, 5.1/9.6. So once you get that 0.53125. However since this is charting then you HAVE to take the decimal back once and eliminate you would need to do more multiplication but all where trying to do is find the elevation in between. So, we divide it to the closest amount possible. (number 531) then after that you will have to look for closest amount. (which is 240) 240 would be your answer. 
Hoped this help :)

If you look at the chart it has time (t) in seconds on the left side. On the right side of the chart you can see the height in relation to sea level. Now that we know that, since at 0 seconds (meaning the sunglasses are in his hand still) the height is 10, we can conclude that he is standing 10 units above sea level. On the chart you can see that at 6 seconds the sunglasses are 166.4 units below sea level. Add on the 10 units and you've got 176.4 which rounds to 176(: I'll include a picture that might help you.
