Disapproval of trump increases per Real Clear Politics average of polls

A majority thinks Russia has dirt on Trump, a new poll shows
By a 51-to-35 percent margin, U.S. voters are convinced the Russian government has dirt on Trump, according to a Quinnipiac University National Poll.
His overall approval rating now sits at 38 percent, compared with 58 percent disapproval, according to the poll.
The Real Clear Politics average of polls shows that Trump's rating is underwater by nearly 10 points.




The new poll also showed a decline in Americans' approval of Trump's overall job performance. His approval now sits at 38 percent, compared with 58 percent disapproval. His approval rating fell five points from a June 20 Quinnipiac poll that followed the president’s summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

Can anyone explain what this means:
His approval now sits at 38 percent, compared with 58 percent disapproval. ....The Real Clear Politics average of polls shows that Trump's rating is underwater by nearly 10 points.

Isn't that 20%? What does it mean to be underwater at 38% to 58%?
