Suppose you have $27$ identical unit cubes colored such that $3$ faces adjacent to a vertex are red and the other $3$ are colored blue. Suppose further that you assemble these $27$ cubes randomly into a larger cube with $3$ cubes to an edge (in particular, the orientation of each cube is random). The probability that the entire cube is one solid color can be written as $\frac{1}{2^n}$ for some positive integer $n$. Find $n$.

The diagram below shows four regular hexagons each with side length $1$ meter attached to the sides of a square. This figure is drawn onto a thin sheet of metal and cut out. The hexagons are then bent upward along the sides of the square so that $A_1$ meets $A_2$, $B_1$ meets $B_2$, $C_1$ meets $C_2$, and $D_1$ meets $D_2$. If the resulting dish is filled with water, the water will rise to the height of the corner where the $A_1$ and $A_2$ meet. there are relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$ so that the number of cubic meters of water the dish will hold is $\sqrt{\frac{m}{n}}$. Find $m+n$.
