A company sells fruit smoothies in two sizes: 6 ounces and 12 ounces. You know that a 6-ounce bottle contains 96 milligrams of sodium. If the amount of sodium is directly proportional to the fluid ounces of smoothie, how many milligrams of sodium does a 12-ounce bottle contain?

And can yall put an explanation please

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.
