One mile = 63360 inches, and the risers of the steps of the capitol building are 6 inches high. Barry is visiting the capitol, and as he climbs up from the one-mile step, his altitude above sea level, in inches, is given by the following sequence: 63,360, 63,366, 63,372, 63,378, 63,384, ... What is Barry's altitude above sea level, in inches, when he is standing on the 65th step above the one-mile step (counting the one-mile step itself as step #1)?
