According to the table, France can produce 1 unit of cheese in 6 hours and 1 unit of wine in 8 hours. Therefore, in 40 hours, France can produce 6 units of cheese (6 hours per unit x 6 units) and 20 units of wine (8 hours per unit x 20 units). Option C is the only combination that falls within this production capacity.
