Given:

Cheese to butter ratio = 4 : 3

Bowls of cheese used = 8

Formula Used:

Butter Bowls = (Bowls of cheese × Butter ratio) / Cheese ratio

Calculation:

Cheese ratio = 4

Butter ratio = 3

Bowls of cheese used = 8

Butter Bowls = (8 × 3) / 4

⇒ Butter Bowls = 24 / 4

⇒ Butter Bowls = 6

Arohi should use 6 bowls of butter.
