4 times 4

Dylan and Laura and Tehja and Tate
If doubled up would equal 8.
If you took that 8 and doubled once more
You’d get the same as 4 times 4.
And what do you think that number would be?
It’s Sweet 16, as sure as can be!
4+4+4+4
Is a number that we truly adore.
It’s 4 times more than the number 4,
It’s also 16 – which we adore even more!

                                                     How many Smiths below?

What is 4 x 4?
What is 2 x 8?
