SOLUTION: I am trying to simply the radicals sqrt(16n) and sqrt(7z^16). I think the first radical is 4n however, I am unsure of the second one. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to simply the radicals sqrt(16n)
sqrt(16n)
= sqrt(16)*sqrt(n)
= 4sqrt(n)
----------
and sqrt(7z^16)
= sqrt(7)*sqrt(z^16)
= (z^8)*sqrt(7)
