There are several ways to write the date or what you call date formats. From the given choices, letter D is incorrect because there's no such way of writing a date like that. The first 3 given choices are acceptable in writing the date. The first one is the most simple. The second one is a bit formal and the third one is the most formal among others. Since she will just write the date of her lease, she can opt to write the first one. 

Answer:

D. 2014, January 25

Explanation:

Writing Dates

There are several correct ways to write dates:

1. In the United States, dates usually begin with the month, followed by the day and the year. Include a comma after the day. If you wish to include the day of the week, place it before the date, followed by a comma.

• December 7, 1941

• January 19, 2015

• Sunday, December 7, 1941

• Monday, January 19, 2015

2. Another style of writing dates puts the day first, followed by the month and the year. Use no punctuation.

• 7 December 1941

• 19 January 2015

3. Dates may also be written using numbers only.

• 12/07/1941 (December 7, 1941)

• 01/19/2015 (January 19, 2015)
