Don't know the exact number but here's how to go about it

 

1 =  1,1    =  1 point

2 = 1,2   2,1  = 2 points

3 = 1,3,   3,1  = 2 points

4 =  1,4    4,1     2, 2  =    3 points

......

28 =  1,28  28,1   2,14   14,2   4,7   7,4  =  6 points

29 = 1,29    29,1    =   2 points

 

You need to fill in the rest from  5 to 27, inclusive
