2^1 = 2k
2^4 = 16k
2^1-4 = 2^3 = 8k.

16k/2k=8.

Simple method is (16K * 8 )/(2K * 8 ) = 8. This is handy for solving these type of problems.

Since the required data bits are same so, we need only 8, 2k x 8 ROM chips. These chips will be connected in parallel and only one chip will be active at a time through address lines (14 lines). Extra three lines will be used to active one chip among 8 chips.
