Seven cards numbered $1$ through $7$ lay stacked in a pile in ascending order from top to bottom ($1$ on top, $7$ on bottom).

Find the probability that, after $10$ shuffles, $6$ is higher in the pile than $3$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Using the integers from $1$ to $4n$ inclusive, pairs are to be formed such that the product of the numbers in each pair is a perfect square. Each number can be part of at most one pair, and the two numbers in each pair must be different. Determine, for each $n$, the maximum number of pairs that can be formed.
