Assuming the density of atmosphere is constant.
At sea level the atmospheric pressure is 0.76 m of mercury.
Average Density of atmosphere : 0.0012 g/cc
Density of Mercury : 13.69 g/cc
Pressure at X height in atmosphere is equal to Pressure at 0.69 m due to Mercury
(0.0012)g(X) = (13.69)g(0.76 - 0.69)
X = (13.69×0.07)/(0.0012)
X = 798.58 m
