$33$ $33$

Using the rules for order of operation, you first execute the exponent:

$(3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3) - 16 \times 3$ $(3*3*3*3) - 16 xx 3$

$81 - 16 \times 3$ $81 - 16 xx 3$

Next, you execute the multiplication:

$81 - (16 \times 3)$ $81 - (16 xx 3)$

$81 - 48$ $81 - 48$

Finally, you execute the subtraction:

$81 - 48 = 33$ $81 - 48 = 33$
