\huge\boxed{1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42}

The factors of a number are all of the numbers that a certain number is divisible by. In this case, we're looking for all the numbers that
42 is divisible by.

To do this, I'll use factor pairs. This means I will find the pairs of numbers that can be multiplied together to get 42.


1*42


2*21


3*14


6*7

So, all of the factors of 42 are
\boxed{1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42}.
