This question is a version of "find the number of factors." An integer divided by any of its factors equals an integer.
To find the number of factors of 130 (factors 1 and 130 included)**
1) Do the prime factorization of 130:\(2^1*5^1*13^1\)
2) Take the exponents of each prime factor. Add 1 to each.
Exponents are 1, 1, 1
Add 1 to each, thus: 2, 2, 2
3) Multiply those numbers
2 * 2 * 2 = 8
