Ups And Downs

The well was 26 meters deep. Smiley begins to climb out. In the first hour, he climbs up 5 meters. In the second hour, he went down 2 meters. In the third hour, he climbs 5 meters. This is how I did it. 

First I started with five meters. Then he go down 2 meters up to 3. Then I started from 3 meters and add 5 which got me into 7.
