to find the divisors of 84 we have to divide 84 by the lowest number is possible so in this case is 2 so:


(84)/(2)=42

Again by 2:


(42)/(2)=21

the next number is 3 so:


(21)/(3)=7

and 7 is only divisible by 7 so:


(7)/(7)=1

Now the divisors will be all posible numbers that we can made by miltiply: 7,3,2 and 2 plus 1 and 84 so in this case are:


1,2,3,4,6,7,12,14,21,28,42\text{ and 84}
