$10$ teams participated in a football tournament: every two teams played each other exactly once. After the end of the tournament it turned out that all teams got different amount of points and some teams won more games, than the winner of the tournament, call them strong. What is the maximum number of teams that could be strong? (In football the winner of the match gets three points, the loser - 0 points, and if the match ends in a draw both teams get 1 point.)

A four-element set $\{a, b, c, d\}$ of positive integers is called [i]good[/i] if there are two of them such that their product is a mutiple of the greatest common divisor of the remaining two. For example, the set $\{2, 4, 6, 8\}$ is good since the greatest common divisor of $2$ and $6$ is $2$, and it divides $4\times 8=32$. Find the greatest possible value of $n$, such that any four-element set with elements less than or equal to $n$ is good. [i]Proposed by Victor and Isaías de la Fuente[/i]
