    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    In the first row, \[72\div \left( \frac{24}{2} \right)=6\]. In the second row, \[96\div \left( \frac{16}{2} \right)=12\] Let the missing number in the third row be x. Then, \[108\div \left( \frac{x}{2} \right)=18\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{x}{2}=\frac{108}{18}=6\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=12\]
