Step 1. We need to calculate 53% of the main span of the Narrows Bridge.

To do this, we divide 4260 by 100 and then multiply by 53:


(4260)/(100)*53=2257.8

Step 2. Add this to the Narrow Bridge's main span:


4260+2257.8=6,517.8

Step 3. Calculate the answer to the nearest foot:


6,517.8ft=6,518ft

Answer: 6,518 ft
