typically you want to solve for the unknown variable. here, it is called x.
x/2 = 8
can be rewritten as:
(1/2)*x = 8
now, we can add/subtract/multiply/divide both sides of an equation by the same amount on both sides, and still keep the equality. We want to get the multiplier of x equal to 1, so in this case we will multiply both sides by 2:
(1/2)*x*2 = 8*2
1*x = 16
x = 16
