Answer:

D (13.1÷111/120)

Explanation:

If every 111/120 miles is a station, and total miles long is 13.1, the procedure to calculate the total number of stations is:

111/120 = 0.925; which means that there's a station every 0.925 miles. This number must divide the total 13.1 miles, to know how many stations there are.

13.1/0.925=14.16.

Therefore, there are 14 water stations.
