You have to think" What do I have to do to the denominator "2" in 1/2 to make it 16?" You figure that you must multiply the 2 by 8. So to keep the fraction equivalent, you multiply the "1" in 1/2 by 8 as well.
1/2 x 8/8 = 8/16.

It is 8/16. Because the denominator is multiplied by eight to raise it to sixteen and the numerator is therefore also multiplied by eight, thereby raising it to eight.

i believe it to be--1/2=8/16. multiply num. and den. by 8. has to be the same number mutiplied top and bottom numbers. your problem reads ?/16=1/2. hope this is right. another problem-?/24=1/2. answer=12/24.again you muliply top and bottom by 12.=1/2 reduced.

show a million/4 and a million/2 as fractions with sixteen in teh denominator. a million/4 = 4/sixteen and a million/2 = 8/sixteen. (be sure you recognize the thank you to transform them.). So...5/sixteen, 6/sixteen, and seven/sixteen artwork. undemanding, actual?
