162×16

162 multiplied by 16 is a simple integer product. Using standard multiplication: 162×16 = (160+2)×16 = 2560 + 32 = 2592. A related method is to double successively: 162×16 = (162×8)×2 = 1296×2 = 2592. The result is even and positive, and it can be obtained through several equivalent approaches depending on the preferred arithmetic route.

Prime factorization provides a concise view of the product. 162 = 2 × 3^4 and 16 = 2^4, so 162×16 = 2^5 × 3^4 = 32 × 81 = 2592. This factorization shows divisibility by many small numbers, including 2, 3, 9, 18, 32, and 81. The total number of positive divisors is (5+1)(4+1) = 30, indicating a relatively large divisor set for a number of this size.

Representations and relations: 2592 can be written as 18×144, 27×96, or 32×81. Such products illustrate how combining powers of two and three yields highly composite numbers with multiple factor pairs. In practical contexts, 2592 often appears in problems involving scaled counts, areas, or units that include factors of 9 and 32, reflecting the underlying 3^4 and 2^5 components.
