Answer:

I believe it would be 192 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

They said the amount of sodium is equal to the amount of ounces meaning it would be 6ounce:96milligrams. In this case, doubling 6 would be 12, resulting in doubling 96 as well. I'm not 100% sure, this problem contains an unnecessary amount of information for a simple concept.
