In mathematics, factorization (alsofactorisation in British English) or factoringis the decomposition of an object (for example, a number, a polynomial, or a matrix) into a product of other objects, or factors, which when multiplied together give the original.

96 = 25*3
The factors of 96 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96
The answer is the number of factors of 96 which are :- 96, 48, 32, 24, 16, 12, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2 and 1......making a total of 12 numbers. NOTE : There is a method from Number Theory for determining the number of factors. Express the number in terms of its Prime Factors. 96 = 25 x 31. Then the number of factors is, (5 + 1)(1 + 1) = 6 x 2 = 12. That is, take the exponent of each prime factor, add one to each exponent and take the product. This number provides the number of factors. ,
Any of its factors including itself
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96
