list all the factors of 32

We can get the factors by constructing a factor tree.

Experimentally, we find that we get 2.

Thus, we look for some multiples of two lesser than 32 and divisible by 32.

we get 4, 8 and 16.

Thus, the factors are 2, 4, 8 and 16 and also 1 and 32 (every number has!)

Factors: 32 = 1,2,4,8,16,32
