7% ÷ 300 × 2500 = 58.3
2500 × 58.3 = 145.75.
2500 + 14575 = 3957,
Ans = 3957.

2500+2500*49÷100=3725.
(2500÷300)for 300 of MSL 7% is added (7*7=49).

How 2500?

It should be 2100.

(7/300) x 2500 = 58.33 above m.s.l.
Basic runway length = 1.5833 x 2500.
= 3958.25.
= 3725 m (app).

The Max length increase possible is 35%.

So, 2500 x 0.35 + 2500 = 3375.
Nearest safe length = 3725.

7%is correct but per 300m is it?

Please explain.

Basic length is to be increased at rate 7% per 300m, Above MSL;

So, correction is (7/100) X (2500/300) X 2500 = 1458 m.

Then, total length is 3958m.

2500+2500(0.07/300) = 3958 (put the nearest one).
