D) LMP: November 13, 2014, Last Ovulation: November 27, 2014

Answer 1

The LMP is October 9, 2014, and the last ovulation is October 23, 2014.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Last Menstrual Period (LMP) is the first day of the last menstrual cycle. In this case, the LMP would be approximately 40 weeks before the Estimated Due Date (EDD). Using the information given, the EDD is July 16, 2015, so the LMP would be 284 days before that, which is October 9, 2014.

Last ovulation refers to the most recent instance of ovulation before the current date. Assuming a regular menstrual cycle of 28 days, ovulation typically occurs around day 14 of the cycle. Therefore, the last ovulation would have occurred approximately 14 days before the LMP, which is October 23, 2014.
