Recently, the answers to a test held nationwide were leaked to a group of unscrupulous people. The investigative agency has arrested the mastermind and nine other people A, B, C. D, E, F, G, H and I in this matter. Interrogating them, the following facts have been obtained regarding their operation. Initially, the mastermind obtains the correct answer key. All the others create their answer key from one or two people who already possess the same. These people are called his/her "sources".
If the person has two sources, then he/she compares the answer keys obtained for both sources. If the key to a question from both sources is identical, it is copied, otherwise it is left blank.
If the person has only one source, He/she copies the source's answer into his/her copy. Finally, each person compulsorily replaces one of the answers (not a blank one) with a wrong answer in his/her answer key.
The paper contained 200 questions, so the investigative agency has ruled out the possibility of two or more of them introducing wrong answers to the same question. The investigative agency has a copy of the correct answer key and has tabulated the following data. This data represents question numbers.
| Name | Wrong Answer(s) | Blank Answer(s) |
| A | 45 | - |
| B | 96 | 46,90,25 |
| C | 2756 | 17,46,90 |
| D | 17 | - |
| E | 4690 | - |
| F | 1446 | 92,90 |
| G | 25 | - |
| H | 4692 | - |
| I | 27 | 17,26,90 |
How many people (excluding the mastermind) needed to make answer keys before C could make his answer key?

A science student has exactly four flasks - 1, 2, 3 and 4 - originally containing a red, a blue, a green, and an orange chemical, respectively. An experiment consists of mixing exactly two of these chemicals together by completely emptying the contents of one of the flasks into another of the flasks. The following conditions apply: The product of an experiment cannot be used in further experiments. Mixing the contents of 1 and 2 produces a red chemical. Mixing the contents of 2 and 3 produces an orange chemical. Mixing the contents of 3 with the contents of either 1 or 4 produces a blue chemical. Mixing the contents of 4 with the contents of either 1 or 2 produces a green chemical.
If the student performs exactly one experiment and exactly one of the resulting three non-empty flasks contains a blue chemical, which one of the following must be the colours of the chemicals in other two flasks?
