D)Maryna spent more time writing per problem at the unit rate of 25 min / 1 problem
.
The correct option is D) Maryna spent more time writing per problem at the unit rate of 25 min / 1 problem.

Maryna consistently had a smaller number of problems but a larger number of minutes of writing, indicating that she spent more time per problem.
Which two ratios form a proportion
4 over 20 and 2 fifths
4 over 20 and 1 fifth
20 fourths and 1 fifth
20 fourths and 2 fifths
4 over 20 and 2 fifths
4 over 20 and 1 fifth
20 fourths and 1 fifth
20 fourths and 2 fifths
The correct answer is:
4 over 20 and 1 fifth.
To form a proportion, the ratios must be equal. In this case, 4/20 is equivalent to 1/5 because both simplify to 1/5.
