What is absolute pressure? And what is gauge pressure?

The pressure at the sea surface is .......... $P_{a}$.

$A$ $U$-tube contains water and methylated spirit separated by mercury. The mercury columns in the two arms are initially in level with $10.0 \; cm$ of water in one arm and $12.5 \; cm$ of spirit in the other. If $15.0 \; cm$ of water and spirit each are further poured into the respective arms of the tube,what is the difference in the levels (in $cm$) of mercury in the two arms? (The specific gravity of spirit is $0.8$.)
