Let $\Sigma=\{1,2,3,4\}$ For $x \in \Sigma^*$, let prod $(x)$ be the product of symbols in $x$ modulo 7 . We take $\operatorname{prod}(\varepsilon)=1$, where $\varepsilon$ is the null string.
For example, $\operatorname{prod}(124)=(1 \times 2 \times 4) \bmod 7=1$.
Define $L=\left\{x \in \Sigma^{\star} \mid \operatorname{prod}(x)=2\right\}$.
The number of states in a minimum state DFA for $L$ is _________ (Answer in integer)
Consider the following two languages over the alphabet $\{a, b\}$ :
$$\begin{aligned} & L_1=\left\{\alpha \beta \alpha \mid \alpha \in\{a, b\}^{+} \text {AND } \beta \in\{a, b\}^{+}\right\} \\ & L_2=\left\{\alpha \beta \alpha \mid \alpha \in\{a\}^{+} \text {AND } \beta \in\{a, b\}^{+}\right\} \end{aligned}$$
