A number of students from Fibonacci Middle School are taking part in a community service project. The ratio of $8^\text{th}$-graders to $6^\text{th}$-graders is $5:3$, and the the ratio of $8^\text{th}$-graders to $7^\text{th}$-graders is $8:5$. What is the smallest number of students that could be participating in the project?

$A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H - I$
He is holding the tenth book, $J$, in his hand. He takes the books out one-by-one, replacing each with the book currently in his hand. For example, he could take out $A$, put $J$ in its place, then take out $D$, put $A$ in its place, etc. He never takes the same book out twice, and stops once he has taken out the tenth book, which is $G$. At the end, he is holding G in his hand, and his bookshelf looks like this.

On the plane of triangle $ABC$ with $\angle BAC = 90^\circ$ we raise perpendicular lines in $A$ and $B$, on the same side of the plane. On these two perpendicular lines we consider the points $M$ and $N$ respectively such that $BN < AM$. Knowing that $AC = 2a$, $AB = a\sqrt 3$, $AM=a$ and that the plane $MNC$ makes an angle of $30^\circ$ with the plane $ABC$ find
a) the area of the triangle $MNC$;
b) the distance from $B$ to the plane $MNC$.
