Problem 3. While leveling between two points Pand Qon opposite banks of a river, the level was first set up near point Pand the staff readings observed at point Pand Qwere 1.385 m and 3.005 m respectively. After this level was set up near point Q and the observed readings on point P and Q were 0.750 m and 2.320 m respectively. If the reduced level of point Qwas 120.00 m, determine the reduced level of point P.
