6. $A$ is the foot of the mountain, $B$ is the peak, and $C$ is a point on the slope, with $A C=\frac{1}{3} A B$. Person A and Person B start from the foot of the mountain at the same time, reach the peak, and return to the foot, repeating this back-and-forth movement. The speed ratio of A to B is $6: 5$, and the downhill speed of both A and B is 1.5 times their respective uphill speeds. After some time, A first sees B climbing on the $A C$ segment from the peak; after some more time, A sees B climbing on the $A C$ segment from the peak for the second time. How many times has A reached the peak by the time A sees B climbing on the $A C$ segment for the second time (including this time)?
6. Party A has been to the mountaintop 9 times.
6.【Solution】Let's imagine this as a linear motion, where the distance of the uphill journey is 1.5 times that of the downhill journey. Let $\mathrm{AC}=1$, then $\mathrm{CB}=2$, and the downhill distance $=2$. We can consider the round trip of going up and down the mountain as 5, and this repeats on a straight line. As shown in the following diagram:
Point $B$ represents the mountaintop. The distance Party A has walked to reach the mountaintop can be expressed as: $5 \times n-2$ (where $n$ is an integer, representing the number of times reaching the mountaintop). At this point, the distance Party B has walked is $(5 \times n-2) \times \frac{5}{6}$. The position of Party B is $(5 \times n-2) \times \frac{5}{6} \div 5 = (5 \times n-2) \div 6$'s remainder. Let this remainder be $k$. When $0<k \leqslant 1$, Party B is exactly on segment $A C$. Since we are looking for the second time Party A sees Party B climbing on segment $A C$ at the mountaintop, we can start from $\mathrm{n}=1$ and calculate sequentially, as shown in the table below:
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline $\mathrm{n}$ & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 \\
\hline $\mathrm{k}$ & 3 & 2 & 1 & 0 & 5 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

That is, when Party A sees Party B climbing on segment $A C$ for the second time (including this time), Party A has been to the mountaintop 9 times.
