In this sentence, "four weeks" is being treated as a singular unit of time. Even though "weeks" is a plural noun, it is functioning as a singular noun in this context because it refers to a specific duration of time. Therefore, we use the singular verb "is" to agree with the singular subject "four weeks." This construction follows the rule that singular subjects take singular verbs in English grammar.

so B is correct ✅

Note

It is a singular form of noun week. But the word weeks' is itself a plural form and an additional apostrophe is to form the possessive. Weeks is utilized for the plural of the week. Week's and Weeks' are utilized in compound time articulations.
