Answer:
[tex]n = 14[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]~~~~~~~2^n+2^n+2^n+2^n = 2^{16}\\\\\implies 4 \cdot 2^n = 2^{16}\\\\\implies 2^2 \cdot 2^n = 2^{16}\\\\\implies 2^{n+2} = 2^{16}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}]\\\\\implies n+ 2 = 16\\\\\implies n = 16-2 \\\\\implies n = 14[/tex]
