To determine if a proportion is true or false, we need to simplify both sides of the equation and check if they are equal.
For the first proportion, 16/8 = 24/12:
Simplifying 16/8, we get: 2
Simplifying 24/12, we get: 2
Since both sides simplify to the same value of 2, this proportion is true.
For the second proportion, 8/4 = 12/6:
Simplifying 8/4, we get: 2
Simplifying 12/6, we get: 2
Once again, both sides simplify to the same value of 2, so this proportion is true.
Therefore, both of the given proportions are valid.
