Explanation in below

$x=16sin20*sin40*sin60*sin80$

= $16*(sqrt3)/2*sin80*sin40*sin20$

= $8sqrt3*sin80*sin40*sin20$

= $4sqrt3*(cos40-cos120)*sin20$

= $4sqrt3*(cos40+cos60)*sin20$

= $4sqrt3*cos40*sin20+4sqrt3*cos60-sin20$

= $2sqrt3*(sin60-sin20)+2sqrt3*sin20$

= $2sqrt3*sin60$

= $2sqrt3*(sqrt3)/2$

= $3$
