Solution

To design a (16:1) multiplexer, you would need 4 select lines. Here's why:

A multiplexer (or mux) is a device that selects one of many inputs and forwards the selected input into a single line. The selection of a particular input line is controlled by a set of selection lines, also known as select lines.

The number of select lines determines how many inputs can be selected. Specifically, a multiplexer with n select lines can select one of 2^n input lines.

In the case of a (16:1) multiplexer, we want to select one of 16 input lines. Therefore, we need n select lines such that 2^n = 16. Solving this equation gives n = 4.

So, 4 select lines are required for a (16:1) multiplexer.
