[b]p2.[/b] A girl has a box with $1000$ candies. Outside the box there is an infinite number of chocolates and muffins. A girl may replace:
$\bullet$ two candies in the box with one chocolate bar,
$\bullet$ two muffins in the box with one chocolate bar,
$\bullet$ two chocolate bars in the box with one candy and one muffin,
$\bullet$ one candy and one chocolate bar in the box with one muffin,
$\bullet$ one muffin and one chocolate bar in the box with one candy.
Is it possible that after some time it remains only one object in the box?

Jerry recently returned from a trip to South America where he helped two old factories reduce pollution output by installing more modern scrubber equipment. Factory A previously filtered $80\%$ of pollutants and Factory B previously filled $72\%$ of pollutants. After installing the new scrubber system, both factories now filter $99.5\%$ of pollutants.
Jerry explains the level of pollution reduction to Michael, "Factory A is the much larger factory. It's four times as large as Factory B. Without any filters at all, it would pollute four times as much as Factory B. Even with the better pollution filtration system, Factory A was polluting nearly three times as much as Factory B."
Assuming the factories are the same in every way except size and previous percentage of pollution filtered, find $a+b$ where $a/b$ is the ratio in lowest terms of volume of pollutants unfiltered from both factories $\textit{after}$ installation of the new scrubber system to the volume of pollutants unfiltered from both factories $\textit{before}$ installation of the new scrubber system.
