We are given $n$ mass points of equal mass in space. We define a sequence of points $O_1,O_2,O_3,\ldots $ as follows: $O_1$ is an arbitrary point (within the unit distance of at least one of the $n$ points); $O_2$ is the centre of gravity of all the $n$ given points that are inside the unit sphere centred at $O_1$;$O_3$ is the centre of gravity of all of the $n$ given points that are inside the unit sphere centred at $O_2$; etc. Prove that starting from some $m$, all points $O_m,O_{m+1},O_{m+2},\ldots$ coincide.

Ayase randomly picks a number $x \in (0, 1]$ with uniform probability. He then draws the six points $(0, 0, 0),(x, 0, 0),(2x, 3x, 0),(5, 5, 2),(7, 3, 0),(9, 1, 4)$. If the expected value of the volume of the convex polyhedron formed by these six points can be written as $\frac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$, find $m + n$
