Elements

Q. enenquë “*sixteen”

ᴱQ. enekkaiya num. ord. “sixteenth” (Category: Ordinal Number)

The Early Qenya Grammar (EQG) of the 1920s had ᴱQ. enekkaiya “sixteenth” as a combination of ᴱQ. enekse “six” and ᴱQ. kaiya “tenth” (PE14/82).

Neo-Quenya: For purposes of Neo-Quenya, I would update this word to ᴺQ. enenquëa “sixteenth” as an adjectival form of enenquë “sixteen”.
