Answer:

D

Explanation:

The contrapositive of a statement is as follows:

"Switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement and negating both. For example, the contrapositive of "If it is raining then the grass is wet" is "If the grass is not wet then it is not raining."

So, for this one, we need to switch as well!

If you are in Reykjavik, then you are in Iceland.

If you are NOT in Iceland, then you are not in Reykjavik.

The answer would be D
