B. 4 1/4 <_ 2K because the point of the arrow is going to the less amount and when you ad the line under it, that makes it equal to or less than. In other words no more than.

Answer: B.
4(1)/(4)\leq 2K

Explanation:

Given: Time taken by Oliver to complete the project =
4(1)/(4) hours

Since Oliver completed his project in no more than ( ≤ ) twice the amount of time it took Karissa to complete her project.

If k represents the amount of time that it took Karissa to complete her project.

Then , we have the following inequality to represent the situation.


4(1)/(4)\leq2K
