If 
is a zero of a polynomial function, then 
is a factor of the polynomial. If 
is a zero of a polynomial function with rational coefficients, then its conjugate, 
is also a zero of the polynomial.
Your problem is written ambiguously. Are the given zeros 16, 8, and 
or is 16 the problem number? I can't help you unless you are clear about what you write.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
