There are an infinite number of multiples of 6 (numbers that six can divide into evenly with no remainder).
Without using a calculator, you can determine if a number is a multiple of 6.
To be a multiple of 6, it must have both 3 and 2 as factors. So if the number is even, then 2 is a factor. To determine if it is even, look at the ones digit, and if it is (0,2,4,6, or 8) then it's even. Then to determine if 3 is a factor, add the digits in the number, if this sum is a multiple of 3, then the number is also a multiple of 3 (or you could say 3 is a factor). If both of these are true, then the number is a multiple of 6.
Example: 984: Last digit (ones digit) is 4, so it's even. Sum 9+8+4=21, which is a multiple of 3, so the number is a multiple of 3. Therefore it is a multiple of 6.

Why do multiples of 2 end in a 2 4 6 8?
Multiples of 2 are even numbers. Even numbers end in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8. If they didn't end in those numbers, they wouldn't be even numbers or multiples of 2.
How many whole numbers between 1 and 500 are divisible by 6 but are not divisible by 8?
To find the number of whole numbers between 1 and 500 that are divisible by 6 but not by 8, we need to find the numbers that are multiples of 6 and not multiples of 8. First, we find the multiples of 6 by dividing 500 by 6, which gives us 83 whole multiples. Next, we find the multiples of 8 by dividing 500 by 8, which gives us 62 whole multiples. To find the numbers that are multiples of 6 but not of 8, we subtract the common multiples of 6 and 8, which is 24, from the total multiples of 6, resulting in 83 - 24 = 59 whole numbers between 1 and 500 that are divisible by 6 but not by 8.
