Consider a set of 3n numbers having variance 4. In this set, the mean of first 2n numbers is 6 and the mean of the remaining n numbers is 3. A new set is constructed by adding 1 into each of first 2n numbers, and subtracting 1 from each of the remaining n numbers. If the variance of the new set is k, then 9k is equal to _________.
