Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time in hours it takes for Martin and Gordon to finish the job if they work together. Within this time, Martin and Gordon do x/4 and x/2 work individually, respectively. The sum of the two works should be equal to 1. 

                                      x/4 + x/2 = 1

The value of x is 1 1/3. Thus, the answer is letter D. 4/3 hours.
