Answer:

5 kilometers north

Step-by-step explanation:

5 kilometers east  5 right

5 kilometers south  5 down

5 kilometers west  5 left

The right and left cancel and we are just 5 down

5 kilometers south, 5 down

We are now a total of 10 down

and 5 kilometers north 5 up

We are now only 5 down

We need to go 5 up to get back where we started

We need to go 5 km north
