Final answer:

The Last Menstrual Period (LMP) for an Estimated Due Date (EDD) of June 16, 2015 is September 9, 2014. The last ovulation before the LMP is estimated to be September 23, 2014.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the Last Menstrual Period (LMP), we need to count back approximately 40.5 weeks from the Estimated Due Date (EDD) of June 16, 2015. This brings us to the LMP of September 9, 2014. However, it is important to note that ovulation typically occurs around day 14 of the menstrual cycle. So, if we count back approximately 14 days from the LMP, we can estimate the date of last ovulation as September 23, 2014. Therefore, Option A) LMP: September 9, 2014, Last Ovulation: September 23, 2014 is the correct answer.
