With varying numbers for all armies, the IJA (Imperial Japanese Army) basically had 3 categories of INFANTRY division organizations in the 20th century, but used primarily two of them: Square and Triangular Divisions. The Square Divisions normally had two Regiments to a Brigade and two Brigades to a Division...approximately 12,000 men. After 1936, the IJA went to Triangular Divisions of 3 regiments to a Brigade and 3 Brigades to a Division...approximately 20,000 men. Examples: The squared 91st Infantry Division deployed to the Philippines, and the 109th Infantry Division deployed to the volcanic regions...including Iwo Jima during WW2. The Iwo Jima Division was reinforced with Independent Divisions/Brigades/Regiments of Artillery, Tank, and Special Naval Landing Forces (SNLF-Imperial Marines).

How many infantrymen were there in a world war 2 infantry division?
In a typical US infantry division such as the 1st, there would be on average 25000, but up to 30000 if you include replacements at the ready. In a UK infantry division there would be on average a lot less, approximately 15000, because as the war went on they got more and more spread out. Looking at an axis power such as Germany, in 1939 they had an impressive average of 40000 men with an average age of 23 per division. Near the end in mid 1945 it was less than 8000 men per division ranging from 12 year old girls and boys to 80 year old arthritic men.
