Suppose that the measurement of time during the day is converted to the metric system so that each day has $10$ metric hours, and each metric hour has $100$ metric minutes. Digital clocks would then be produced that would read $9{:}99$ just before midnight, $0{:}00$ at midnight, $1{:}25$ at the former $3{:}00$ $\textsc{am}$, and $7{:}50$ at the former $6{:}00$ $\textsc{pm}$. After the conversion, a person who wanted to wake up at the equivalent of the former $6{:}36$ $\textsc{am}$ would have to set his new digital alarm clock for $\text{A:BC}$, where $\text{A}$, $\text{B}$, and $\text{C}$ are digits. Find $100\text{A} + 10\text{B} + \text{C}$.

In the new coordinate system, point $A$ is on the positive $x$-axis, and point $B$ is on the positive $y$-axis. The point $P$ with coordinates $(-14,27)$ in the original system has coordinates $(\alpha,\beta)$ in the new coordinate system. Find $\alpha+\beta$.
