A. repel , because both would have the same charge, both being rubbed by amber

They will repel.......In case if  you do want an explanation then.....

The charge transfers takes place due to    "potential difference" between the silk 
and  amber.Since we do not know value of exact potential differences ,we cannot
justify the charges on silk as well as on amber.But through little efforts like using 
an "Electroscope" we  can really justify charges on mark.

anonymous · Answer

The result is silk & amber have opposite charges.

However I'm little unsure about question's language..
I wanna ask whether you rubbed the  2 pieces  of silk  consecutively to a amber rod 
or you just rubbed it independently to different amber rods.
