To find the sum Ryan is looking for, we need to calculate the cube of the number \( n \) and then add 16 to it.
First, let's calculate the cube of \( n = 2 \):
\[
n^3 = 2^3 = 8
\]
Now, we add 16 to this result:
\[
\text{Sum} = n^3 + 16 = 8 + 16 = 24
\]
Therefore, the sum Ryan is looking for is \( \boxed{24} \).
