C)The numerator is 8.

D)The numerator is 16.

Explanation:

A)
`(5)/(6)=(x)/(12)`

`(5* 12)/(6)=10`

`(5)/(6)=(10)/(12)`

The numerator is 10.

B)
`(2)/(4)=(x)/(36)`

`(2* 36)/(4)=18`

`(2)/(4)=(18)/(36)`

The numerator is 18.

C)
`(2)/(5)=(x)/(20)`

`(2* 10)/(5)=8`

`(2)/(5)=(8)/(20)`

The numerator is 8.

D)
`(4)/(25)=(x)/(100)`

`(4* 100)/(25)=16`

`(4)/(25)=(16)/(100)`

The numerator is 16.
