Answer

32

Work Step by Step

We solve these problems by comparing the numerators and the denominators. The numerator in the second fraction is 4 times greater than the numerator in the first fraction, so we know that the denominator of the second fraction must be 4 times greater as well. Thus, we multiply 4 times 8, finding that the missing number is 32.
