1998 Tournament Of Towns, 1

A $ 20\times20\times20$ block is cut up into 8000 non-overlapping unit cubes and a number is assigned to each. It is known that in each column of 20 cubes parallel to any edge of the block, the sum of their numbers is equal to 1. The number assigned to one of the unit cubes is 10. Three $ 1\times20\times20$ slices parallel to the faces of the block contain this unit cube. Find the sume of all numbers of the cubes outside these slices.

Prove that each hobbit has $669$ rubles. [b]p2.[/b] There was a young lady named Chris, Who, when asked her age, answered this: "Two thirds of its square Is a cube, I declare." Now what was the age of the miss? (a) Find the smallest possible age for Chris. You must justify your answer. (Note: ages are positive integers; "cube" means the cube of a positive integer.)
