    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    Let the required number of bottles be x.

    More weavers, More mats (Direct Proportion)

    More days, More mats (Direct Proportion)

     

    Wavers 4 : 8 :: 4 : x
    Days 4 : 8

     4 x 4 x x = 8 x 8 x 4

     

     x =\( \frac { (8*8*4) } {(4*4) }\)

     x = 16.
