For an unsigned integer, that would be 216-1. For a signed integer in 2's complement notation, the largest number would be 215-1.

Is the largest 16 bit positive number?
Unsigned: 216-1. Signed: 215-1.
What is the largest hexadecimal number that can be held in one word?
The answer depends on the number of binary digits (BITS) in the word. The largest 8-BIT hexadecimal word will be 16^8 -1 = 4,294,967,295.Nowadays, 32 and 64 bit words are common: a 64 bit word could hold a number greater than 1.1*10^77 while a 128 bit word (not yet in common use) would exceed 1.3*10^154 or a Googol^1.5
What are two numbers whose GCF is 16 and explain why?
16 and 32 have a GCF of 16 because 16 is the largest positive integer that divides evenly into both of those numbers with no remainder.
Is 16 a composite number or a prime number?
16 is a composite number because it has at least one positive factor other than one or itself.
How many colors are available with a 16-bit color depth?
For a digital photo, bit depth is the number of colors that can be shown in the image. Because the bits can only indicate one of 2 possible states (0 or 1), the number of colors can only be powers of 2. Some examples of bit depths (and the calculation of the decimal number for those of you who know exponents) for image files are: 2-bit (2^2 = 4 colors), 4-bit (2^4=16 colors), 8-bit (2^8=256 colors), 16-bit (2^16=65,536 colors), and 24-bit (2^24=16,777,216 colors).
Is the largest 16 bit positive number?
Unsigned: 216-1. Signed: 215-1.
What is the largest integer that can be represented using a 16 bit number?
65,535
What is the largest number that can be represented by a 16-bit unsigned binary number?
216-1 or (2^16)-1
How many data lines are necessary in 16-bit microprocessor and what is the magnitude of the largest number that can be placed on its data bus?
The number of data lines required in a 16-bit microprocessor is 16, in the internal view, but could be something else, such as 8, in the external view. In the 8086/8088, the processor is 16 bits, and its internal data bus is 16 bits. The 8086 provides 16 bits on the external bus, but the 8088 provides 8 bits, even though they are the same internal processor - the 8088 simply uses two memory cycles to move one word. The largest number that can be represented on a 16 bit bus depends on the interpretation of that number. An unsigned 16 bit number ranges from 0 to 65535, so 65535 is the largest value when unsigned. A 16 bit two's complement signed number ranges from -32768 to +32767, so +32767 is the largest value when signed.
What is the largest decimal number that can be represented by a 16 bit binary word?
That would be 216 - 1, or 65535.
How many '1's are there in a 16 bit binary sequence?
In a 16 bit number there must be from zero to 16 '1'. If a bit does not have value zero then it has a value of 1. Nothing else can be represented by a bit. Example 0000 is a 4 bit number. Each bit is a zero. 1010 is also a four bit number. 0000111100001111 is a 16 bit number. 1100110011000001 is also a 16 bit number.
What number can be divided by 16?
Any number can be divided by 16 to produce another positive real number. If the quotient is to be a positive integer, the possible numbers are those formed by multiplying 16 by any positive integer.
What is the largest positive value that you can represent with 16 bits?
216 -1
What is the largest decimal number that a two byte integer can represent?
There are 8 bits in a byte, so a two byte integer would be 16 bits. The largest 16 bit integer possible would be 11111111111111112, which is 65535 in base 10.
What is the 8th smallest positive even number?
16
What is the largest decimal no that can be represented by a 16 bit binnary word?
(2 to the power of 16 ) - 1 = 65535
What is positive 16 minus negative 3?
When you subtract a negative number, it has the same effect as adding a positive number. Therefore, in this instance, 16 - (-3) = 16 + 3 = 19.
