You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)

Answer:
6 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is find the difference between the numbers in each factor pair and make sure the factors combine to give 48.
2 and 4 . . . . . have a difference of 2, but 2·4 ≠ 48
4 and 6 . . . . . have a difference of 2, but 4·6 ≠ 48
6 and 8 . . . . . have a difference of 2, and 6·8 = 48
24 and 2 . . . . do not have a difference of 2
C. would be the correct device to use in trials.
