Divide each set to see if the answers are identical:

A: 3/2 = 1.5

6/3 = 3

Answers are not the same so this is not proportional.

B: 20/4 = 5

24 /6 = 4

Answers are not the same so this is not proportional.

C: 27/9 = 3

81/27 = 3

Answers are the same so this is proportional.

D: 8/2 = 4

16/8 = 2

Answers are not the same so this is not proportional.

The answer is C.
