See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, evaluate the term with the EXPONENT:

7(16 -: color(red)(4^2)) => 7(16 -: 16)7(16÷42)7(16÷16)

Next, evaluate the term within the PARENTHESIS:

7(color(red)(16 -: 16)) => 7(1)7(16÷16)7(1) or 7 * 171

Next, evaluate the MULTIPLICATION:

color(red)(7 * 1) => 7717
