Answer:

D. She and Richmond worked hard and saved their money

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple sentence has the most basic elements that make it a sentence: a subject, a verb, and a completed thought. The other sentences give examples of compound sentences; a sentence with more than one subject or predicate.
