The citation that is correctly punctuated in MLA style is "Mario Campos Gutiérrez, supervisor of Grupo Beta Sur, estimates that half eventually get here-after repeated attempts" (Nazario 4).

MLA style is a system designed to cite sources, that is, to give credit for the information that has been taken from other texts written by other authors. Moreover, MLA style is mainly used in papers.

The citation that is correctly punctuated is the last one because, as the name of the author is not included in the sentence, it has been correctly included inside the parentheses, which are found at the end of the sentence and outside the quotation marks. As the second and third options include the name of the author inside the quotation marks, they are not correctly punctuated. Moreover, the last word inside the quotation marks ('attempts') must not be followed by a period. As the first option includes a period after "attempts", it is also incorrectly punctuated. The fourth and last option is the only one that has been correctly punctuated.
