That means that you have to multiply 11 times itself 2016 times. You would need to use a calculator with 11 ^ 16.

I need to solve this by hand according to my homework. Could I somehow simplify it?

you can approximate it using logs
log(11^2016) = 2016 * log11 = 2016*1.04139 = 2099.4476
so, 11^2016 ≈ 2.80319 * 10^2099
