Polygons with integer angles

For how many integers n3n \ge 3 does a regular nn-gon have interior angles that are an integer number of degrees?

Show hints (2)+
  1. The interior angle is 180360/n180 - 360/n. When is that an integer?
  2. Need n360n \mid 360 with n3n\ge3. Count divisors of 360=23325360=2^33^25 and drop 11 and 22.
