Solution

The correct option is A $28
The ratio of water bottles to the money spent is 4:7.

Drawing the tape diagram,

Now, 16 water bottles have to be adjusted in 4 rectangles.

Therefore, each rectangle will represent 164=4 water bottles.

The rectangles used to represent the money spent will also have 4 dollars in each rectangle. Also, the total number of rectangles are 7.

Therefore, the total money spent is 4×7=$28.
