$ 30$ students participated in the mathematical Olympiad. Each of them was given $ 8$ problems to solve. Jury estimated their work with the following rule: 1) Each problem was worth $ k$ points, if it wasn't solved by exactly $ k$ students; 2) Each student received the maximum possible points in each problem or got $ 0$ in it; Lasha got the least number of points. What's the maximal number of points he could have? Remark: 1) means that if the problem was solved by exactly $ k$ students, than each of them got $ 30 - k$ points in it.
