Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ms. Dehejia has 25 sheets of colored paper

Number of papers Ms. Dehejia has = 25

She will use 1/4 sheet of paper for each flyer.


\texttt{Paper required to make each flyer = }(1)/(4)=0.25

We need to find how many flyers she can make with 25 sheets.


\texttt{Number of flyers = }\frac{\texttt{Number of sheets}}{\texttt{Paper required to make each flyer}}\\\\\texttt{Number of flyers = }(25)/(0.25)=100

Number of flyers can be made with 25 sheets = 100

Option D is the correct answer.
