Let $\Gamma$ is a circle with diameter $AB$. Let $\ell$ be the tangent of $\Gamma$ at $A$, and $m$ be the tangent of $\Gamma$ through $B$. Let $C$ be a point on $\ell$, $C \ne A$, and let $q_1$ and $q_2$ be two lines that passes through $C$. If $q_i$ cuts $\Gamma$ at $D_i$ and $E_i$ ($D_i$ is located between $C$ and $E_i$) for $i = 1, 2$. The lines $AD_1, AD_2, AE_1, AE_2$ intersects $m$ at $M_1, M_2, N_1, N_2$ respectively. Prove that $M_1M_2 = N_1N_2$.

There are $n$ natural numbers written on a blackboard, where $n\in\mathbb{N},\ n\geq 2$. During each step two chosen numbers $a,b$, having the property that none of them divides the other, are replaced by their greatest common divisor and least common multiple. Prove that after a number of steps, all the numbers on the blackboard cease modifying. Prove that the respective number of steps is at most $(n-1)!$.
