What did Galileo write for the Medicis?
Answer: D
Galileo wrote a book on how to use a compass, keeping the Medicis in mind. The passage says that he gave the Duke of Gonzaga a military compass, and then wrote a book with the Medicis in mind, teaching how to use it. The other options, writing on his theories, on the greatness of his patrons or on Jupiter's moons, are not what the passage says he wrote for them. The passage says that Galileo, having given the Duke of Gonzaga a military compass, wrote a book teaching its use with the Medicis in mind, so option D is stated word for word. The other options describe a different gift or work.
