The following consecutive readings were taken with a level and a 4 m leveling staff on continuously sloping ground at common intervals of 30 m. 0.685, 1.455, 2.345, 3.125, 0.345, 1.225, 2.115, 2.905, 0.455, 1.335, 2.225, 3.015 m. Rule out a page of a level field book and enter the above readings. Calculate the reduced levels of the points if the reduced level of the first point is 430.500 m. Also determine the average gradient of the line joining the first and last points. (16M)
