D Correct answer
Explanation

$\displaystyle \frac {1}{2}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {1\, \times\, 2}{2\, \times\, 2}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {2}{4}$


$\displaystyle \frac {1}{2}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {1\, \times\, 3}{2\, \times\, 3}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {3}{6}$

$\displaystyle \frac {1}{2}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {1\, \times\, 8}{2\, \times\, 8}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {8}{16}$

So $\displaystyle \frac {1}{2}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {2}{4}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {3}{6}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac {8}{16}$
