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.

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, and 96 all go into the number 96. so 12 numbers can go into the number 96!! :D
1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 96
Well, let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty of numbers. If you have 96 and you want to see how many times 8 can fit into it, you simply divide 96 by 8. The answer is 12, so 8 can go into 96 a total of 12 times. Isn't that just a happy little math problem?
2 3 4 6 8 12 16 24 32 48 These are all the numbers which go into 96.
Exactly 96 times
