What is the highest point on Earth as measured from the Earth's centre?

there is no way i could have known that

The answer didn't give relevant data. The earth is not perfectly round but is like a slightly flattened ball. earth radius at equator: 6378km earth radius at poles: 6356km Everest is 8.8km high but at 28 degrees latitude the radius is 6km shorter than at the equator.

Confusing question. The “earth’s center” seems to mean the core of the earth. But the explanation refers to the equator, which is indeed the center, but in a different understanding of the center.

BrickWunderkind174, from the centre of the earth Kilimanjaro is actually taller than Everest.

TestyAlien3443, I will need someone drawing me a picture to understand this!

*Middle* might have been a better word choice. Or a rephrase altogether...

I learned.
