Answer:

D. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

8/x=5/10.

if you cross multiply, it gives you 5x=8*10 which equals to 5x=80.

Then, you divide 80 by 5 to leave the x by itself. 80 divided by 5 is 16.

Another way is 5/10 equals 1/2 so you find the double of 8 which is 16. 8/16=1/2 -> 1/2=1/2 so that means that 8/16 can equal 5/10
