Answer:

B. Bertha's dive ended 6 times farther than Vernon's dive.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

Bertha's dive ended -24 m from that starting point.

Vernon's dive ended -4 m from that starting point.

So, we get that,

Bertha's end point = 6 × Vernon's end point

i.e. -24 = 6 × (-4)

So, we see that,

Bertha's dive ended 6 times farther than Vernon's dive.
