Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a square.

The area \( A \) of a square is given by the formula \( A = s^2 \), where \( s \) is the length of a side.

Step2: Substitute the given side length into the formula.

Here, the side length \( s = 16 \) inches. So we calculate \( A = 16^2 \).
\( 16^2 = 16 \times 16 = 256 \).

Answer:

A. 256 square inches
