To factor the expression \( 16r + 8s \), we look for the greatest common factor (GCF) of the two terms.

The terms are:
- \( 16r \)
- \( 8s \)

The GCF of 16 and 8 is 8. We can factor out 8 from both terms:

\[
16r + 8s = 8(2r + s)
\]

So, the factored expression is:

\[
8(2r + s)
\]

This is in the form of a product with a whole number greater than 1.
