There are three liquids X, Y and Z. Cost price of 100 ml of liquid X and selling price of 100 ml of liquid Y are the same, which is Rs. 500. Liquid X, when sold, yields a loss of 10% and Liquid Y, when sold, yields a profit of 10%. Z's cost price and selling price are the same, which is Rs. 500 for 100 ml.

Three types of products (P1, P2 and P3) are prepared in the following manner :
1. P1 contains X and Y in the ratio 3 : 2 by volume
2. P2 contains X and Y in the ratio 2 : 3 by volume
3. P3 contains only Z

The selling price of each of the products is the aggregate sum of the selling price of the individual components.If 341 ml of P1 was sold, then the profit/loss (approximately) would be

4) Two straight roads R1 and R2 diverge from a point A at an angle of 120 degrees. Ram starts walking from point A along R1 at a uniform speed of 3km/hr. Shyam starts walking at the same time from A along R2 at a uniform speed of 2km/hr. They continue walking for 4 hours along the respective roads and reach points B and C on R1 and R2 respectively. There is a straight path connecting B and C. Then Ram returns to point A after walking along the line segments BC and CA. Shyam also returns to A after walking along line segments CB and BA. Their speeds remain unchanged. The time interval (in hours) between Ram's and Shyam's return to the point A is
