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.
