Using a sniper rifle that shoots a bullet projectile at 760 m/s, you will shoot the target at 900 meters with the same elevation. How many millimeters must you raise the muzzle/tip of the gun from the horizon to compensate for the effect of gravity if the gun is 1100 mm long. (Neglect air resistance and Coriolis effect)
