A 30m chain was found to be 0.15m too long after
Chaining a distance of 5000m. It was found to be 0.3m too long after measuring a total distance of
10000m. At the start of the work, the chain was tested and was found to be exactly 30m in length. Find out the correct length of the measured distance.
