problem

The number of toy cars that Ray has is a multiple of 66. When he loses two of them, the number of cars that he has left is a multiple of nn. If nn is a positive even integer less than 1010, then how many possible values are there for nn?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
The number of toy cars that Ray has is a multiple of 6. When he loses two of them, the number of cars that he has left is a multiple of n. If n is a positive even integer less than 10, then how many possible values are there for n?
Original LaTeX notation
