Hi there!
Here's the answer:
•°•°•°•°<><><<><>><><>°•°•°•°•°•
Let the first multiple be x
& the other is x+1
Given,
Sum of these consecutive multiples of 16 = 208
=> 16x + 16(x+1) = 208
=> 16(2x+1) = 208
=> 2x+1 = 208/16
=> 2x+1 = 13
=> 2x = 12
=> x = 6
•°• The Required Multiplies of 16 are 6 & 7

Hope it helps
