sir why is the answer not 32? Integral divisors also include negative integers.. for every positive factor there would be its equivalent negative integer as a factor.. therefore total number of integral divisors = 16x2 = 32
Please explain

[@Wizako]

You are right. The question should have explicitly stated positive integral factors. We will correct and reshoot another video.

I got scared with what does integral divsors mean, I know number of factors method but the way the question was asked it baffled me into thinking what is this new topic in number properties

These types of worded questions are more common on the GMAT. As a serious test-taker, one has to be conversant with such terms.
Best wishes for your GMAT!

Is it an official question?

Hi Samarth,
This question is not an official GMAT question but the concept involved in solving this question is frequently tested on the GMAT.
