Is 32 a factor of 96?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 32 is a factor of 96.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 96 and then seeing if 32 is one of them. The factors of 96 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, and 96. Looking at the list, you see that 32 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 32 a factor of 96?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 96 by 32 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 32 is a factor of 96. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 32 is not a factor of 96.

96 divided by 32 is 3 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 32 a factor of 96?" is yes.
