Correct answer is D.

During the first 150 miles, she drove 150 miles at a speed of x<span> miles per hour, so her time was
</span><span>150 \text{ miles} = x * t_{1st} 
</span>where t_{1st} <span>is the time she spent driving the first 150 miles.
</span>
On the second half of the trip, she drove at <span>1.25x</span> miles per hour. There, the equation would be
150 \text{ miles} = 1.25x * t_{2nd}
where t_{2nd} is the time she spent driving the second 150 miles.
 
Solve both of those equations for the t<span> variables, then add them together. Your answer will be 
</span>t_{1st} + t_{2nd}= \frac{150}{x} + \frac{150}{1.25x}= \frac{150}{x} + \frac{120}{x}= \frac{270}{x}

The quotient of 4 and 1/5 will be greater than 4.
bixtya [17]
First, we will need to compute the quotient of 4 and 1/5
When we divide a number by a fraction, we convert the division to multiplication and then flip this fraction.
Therefore, in the given:
4 / (1/5) we will convert the division into multiplication and flip the 1/5 to 5
This will result is the following:
4 / (1/5) = 4*5 = 20

Comparing this quotient to 4, we will find that the quotient is greater than 4

Therefore, the given statement is: True
