Dorothea has a 3×43 \times 4 grid of dots. She colors each dot red, blue, or dark gray. Compute the number of ways Dorothea can color the grid such that there is no rectangle whose sides are parallel to the grid lines and whose vertices all have the same color. Submit a positive integer AA. If the correct answer is CC and your answer is AA, you will receive ⌊20(min⁡(AC,CA))2⌋\left\lfloor 20\left(\min \left(\frac{A}{C}, \frac{C}{A}\right)\right)^{2}\right\rfloor points.
