Make sure that the order of script and css files should be like below:

```
<head>   
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />   
<link href="~/Content/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />   
<link href="~/Content/StyleSheet1.css" rel="stylesheet" />   
<script src="~/Scripts/jquery-3.1.1.js"></script>   
<script src="~/Scripts/bootstrap.min.js"></script>   </head>
```

\

Hope This Helps....
