TIP: When an integer properties question features a large number, it's often useful to find the prime factorization of that number.
768 = (2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(3)
At this point, we can see that 3 is an odd factor.
We can also see that, if we combine 3 with any other prime factor, the resulting product will be even.
We should also remember that 1 is a factor of ALL positive integers.
So, the only odd factors of 768 are 1 and 3
Answer: C
