Answer:

2(8a+5)

Explanation:

To factor means to find a number that can divide all the terms in the expression and leave whole number quotients. The factor is written outside the bracket while the quotients are written inside the bracket. In the question, 2 can divide both 16a and 10 giving 8a and 5. This is how the answer was obtained.
