2/4=n/8..........
on cross multipication we get...
(2*8)/4 = n
or n = 16/4
n = 4
Now if you want to verify you answer ,,,you can put the values of n in the equation and if you get LHS=RHS,,,this means that you answer is correct..here u must also convert ur LHS in to standarad form,,only then you get LHS=RHS

hope this will help you
