Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that r is inversely proportional to s then the equation relating them is

r = [tex]\frac{k}{s}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition r = 16 when s = 3

k = rs = 16 × 3 = 48

r = [tex]\frac{48}{s}[/tex] ← equation of variation → B
