How do I enable the decoder?

Set G1 high and both G2A and G2B low. Only then does the decoder respond to the address inputs A, B and C, and the selected output goes low.

How can I expand it to 16 outputs?

Use two 74138 units. Connect the fourth address bit to the enable inputs so that one unit is active when the bit is low and the other when it is high, while both share the A, B and C address lines.
