#1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64#

Explanation:

Factoring #64# into primes, we find that it is a power of #2#...

#64 = 2 xx 32#

#= 2 xx 2 xx 16#

#= 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 8#

#= 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 4 #

#= 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 2 xx 2#

#= 2^6#

So the only possible positive factors of #64# are powers of #2# including #2^0 = 1#:

#1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64#
