In an ancient game of trading “Pirate Bay”, 6 players took part. The game is played in a manner that the players select a port each and then they trade with each other. Everything that they sent out to other player is known as exports and anything that they receive from other players is known as imports. The table below shows details of imports and exports of between those six players. The entry corresponding to a particular row i and column j gives the total amount of exports by a player i to a player j in all the previous trade rounds. For example the entry in row 2 column 4 means P2 has exported to P4 a total of 58 times.  Total number of times trade happens between two players will be = total exports of i + total exports of j = total imports of i + total imports of j.

If we draw a pie chart of total trade of P3, then what will be the angle made by the trade between P3 and P2?
