We can solve this using ratio and proportion. Let x be the time it takes Winnie to word process and spell check 45 pages.

We know that:

10 pages take 22 minutes

So, we can set up a proportion:

10/22 = 45/x

Cross-multiplying, we get:

10x = 22 * 45

Simplifying:

10x = 990

x = 99

Therefore, it will take Winnie 99 minutes to word process and spell check 45 pages. So, the answer is D. We can use proportions to solve the problem. Let's call the time it takes Winnie to word process and spell check 45 pages "t". Then we can set up the proportion:

10/22 = 45/t

To solve for t, we can cross-multiply and simplify:

10t = 22 * 45

10t = 990

t = 99

So it will take Winnie 99 minutes to word process and spell check 45 pages. Therefore, the best choice is D.
