For a positive integer $n(\geq 5)$, there are $n$ white stones and $n$ black stones (total $2n$ stones) lined up in a row. The first $n$ stones from the left are white, and the next $n$ stones are black. $$\underbrace{\Circle \Circle \cdots \Circle}_n \underbrace{\CIRCLE \CIRCLE \cdots \CIRCLE}_n $$ You can swap the stones by repeating the following operation. [b](Operation)[/b] Choose a positive integer $k (\leq 2n - 5)$, and swap $k$-th stone and $(k+5)$-th stone from the left. Find all positive integers $n$ such that we can make first $n$ stones to be black and the next $n$ stones to be white in finite number of operations.

Greg plays a game in which he is given three random $1$ digit numbers, each between $0$ and $9$, inclusive, with repeats allowed. He is to put these three numbers into any order. Exactly one ordering of the three numbers is correct, and if he guesses the correct ordering, he wins $\$150$. What are Greg's expected winnings for this game, given that he randomly guesses one valid ordering when he plays?
