In realization a/c the values of assets are taken at book value. In the 1st illustration the Journal entries are made at agreed values In the practice question the assets are transfered to realization at their book values. Hence, the difference
Can you please elaborate still I can't understand . In any method the realisation profit should be same na In illustration 1 they took the excess or deficit over book value to realisation alc In practice prob 1 they took book values to realisation alc and in pc the excess or deficit will be automatically adjusted. So why will difference comes in both methods ??

The difference is because of Goodwill which is dealt in separate working note in each problem. Once you do the entire sum in earlier method, the final balance sheet will be same. The same note is also given at the end of practice problem.
