Answer:

64

Explanation:

I've never explained multiplication but here we go:

Multiplication is literally repeated addition

So 16*4 would just be 16+16+16+16 which we can do the addition out and get 64

We can also do 4 sixteen times and do 4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4

If we add that up, we'll get 64

We can also do distributive property, so we do 4^15 which is 60 and then we do 4*1 which equals 4, then we do 60+4 to get 64. The equation will look like this:

4(15+1)

You can always just use a calculator but you don't learn from doing that

You can also do it how they teach it to you in school which looks like this
