Why each option

Router Y routes traffic destined for 10.227.151.255 through Router D, as Router D is identified as the next-hop router for that destination in Router Y's routing table.

Arouter A

Router A is not specified or implied by Router Y's routing table as the next-hop for reaching the destination 10.227.151.255.

Brouter B

Router B is not specified or implied by Router Y's routing table as the next-hop for reaching the destination 10.227.151.255.

Crouter C

Router C is not specified or implied by Router Y's routing table as the next-hop for reaching the destination 10.227.151.255.

Drouter DCorrect

Based on Router Y's routing table, Router D is the most appropriate next-hop router for forwarding traffic to the network encompassing the IP address 10.227.151.255. Router Y consults its routing table, identifies the best matching route (longest prefix match) to the destination network, and then sends the packet to Router D to continue its journey.
