Let j be the number of times Neishai jogs in h hours.

It is given that Neishai jogs around the block 4 times every hour. This means that after 1 hour, she jogs 4 times. After 2 hours, she jogs:


2*4=8\text{ times}

After 3 hours, she jogs:


3*4=12\text{ times}

After h hours, she jogs:


h*4=4h\text{ times}

Therefore, the number of times Neishai jogs around the block is given using the equation:


j=4h

OPTION B is the correct option.
