A distance of 5,254.38’ was measured using a 100’ tape that is supported at its ends only and applying 10 lbs of tension, If the weight of the tape is 1 lb what is the correct distance? Enter the answer as a number without any units, symbols, or commas; and using two figures after the decimal. Note: Only sag correction is considered here.
