The ellipse $x^2 + 4y^2 = 4$ is inscribed in a rectangle aligned with the coordinate axes,which in turn is inscribed in another ellipse that passes through the point $(4,0)$. Then the equation of the outer ellipse is:

  • A
    $x^2 + 12y^2 = 16$
  • B
    $4x^2 + 48y^2 = 48$
  • C
    $4x^2 + 64y^2 = 48$
  • D
    $x^2 + 16y^2 = 16$
