Answer: The correct option is (c)
(4)/(3).

Step-by-step explanation: We are to select the correct value that is equivalent to the following expression :


E=\log_8{16}.

We will be using the following logarithmic properties :


(i)~\log a^b=b\log a,\\\\(ii)~\log_ab=(\log b)/(\log a).

So, the given expression becomes


E\\\\=\log_8{16}\\\\\\=(\log16)/(\log8)\\\\\\=(\log2^4)/(\log2^3)\\\\\\=(4\log2)/(3\log2)\\\\\\=(4)/(3).

Thus, the required value is
(4)/(3).

Option (c) is CORRECT.
