I can help you with a "mental picture'"

Take a pie or a cake ( IT MUST BE CHOCOLATE) and divide it into 3 parts. Each part is a third.

Now take 5 pies or cakes ( all chocolate) and you have 5x3 or 15 thirds. To get 16 thirds, just take one piece of ( you guessed it chocolate) pie from one more pie that you divided into thirds. All together you have 16 thirds.

Since you have 2 pieces let over from that last pie, (2/3 of the pie by the way) just send it to the first chocolate lover that comes to mind.
