D Correct answer
Explanation

The golden ratio (phi, approximately 1.618) is defined by the relationship (a+b)/a = a/b where a is the larger segment and a+b is the total length. This means the ratio of the sum to the larger part equals the ratio of the larger to the smaller part. Option D correctly expresses this mathematical relationship.
