16 will go where the question mark is located
So 3/6 = 8/16
Think of it like this: if you had three slices of pizza out of 6 total, then you had half the pizza. The same goes for if you had 8 slices out of 16 total
You can use the cross multiplication rule to find x
3/6 = 8/x
3*x = 6*8
3x = 48
3x/3 = 48/3
x = 16
So 3/6 = 8/16

You can use the cross multiplication rule to find x
3/6 = 8/x
3*x = 6*8
3x = 48
3x/3 = 48/3
x = 16
remember, you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
3/6=8/?
multiply both sides by ?
3?/6=8
mulitly both sides by 6
3?=(6)(8)
3?=48
divide both sides by 3
?=16
16 goes in the quation mark place
3/6=8/?
multiply both sides by ?
3?/6=8
mulitly both sides by 6
3?=(6)(8)
3?=48
divide both sides by 3
?=16
16 goes in the quation mark place
