The correct example of economies of scale is:

A business increases its production of widgets, and the cost of producing each widget decreases.

This reflects the essence of economies of scale, where increasing production leads to a lower cost per unit due to factors such as bulk purchasing of materials, improved operational efficiencies, and spreading fixed costs over more units of output.
