Respuesta :

Hi I have the answer. The answer would be D. 8. If we take are trying to find half of something. Multiply every answer choice by 2. When you find the answer the answer would be the one you found with the right choice. In this case A and B ar incorrect because multiplying 2 digits would not be the answer. C is not the answer because 2 x 9 = 18. In conclusion 8 x 2 = 16. Please give brainliest I am trying to get a new rank before my birthday. Good luck !
