D.

Explanation:

In each Option, the L.H.S. is 6/8={(3)(2)}/{(4)(2)}=3/4.

Now, in A," the R.H.S."=51/68={(17)(3)}/{(17)(4)}=3/4.

In B, "the R.H.S.="39/52={(13)(3)}/{(13)(4)}=3/4.

In C," the R.H.S.="21/28={(7)(3)}/{(7)(4)}=3/4.

In D," the R.H.S.="15/24={(3)(5)}/{(3)(8)}=3/8.

So, D is not a true proportion.
