Based on the given table, there are two factors being compared: Factor 1 and Factor 2. However, there is also an interaction term, which is the combination of Factor 1 and Factor 2. Therefore, this ANOVA is a 2 x 2 ANOVA, where Factor 1 has 1 degree of freedom, Factor 2 has 1 degree of freedom, and there are 26 degrees of freedom for error. The MS (mean square) for each factor is obtained by dividing the SS (sum of squares) by its degrees of freedom. The F-value is the ratio of the MS for each factor and the MS for error.
