Answer: (D)

Diamond miles indicate the distance along a published military route from your current position toward the next fix or intersection on that route. They’re read in the direction you’re traveling and tell you how far you are from the target point. For V9 toward D15, the chart shows 24 miles to the D15 point, with the next fix along that path being SQS, which lies to the NW. So, you’re 24 miles from D15 in the NW direction toward SQS when following V9 toward D15. The other distances do not match this leg of the route.
