Double check using the model number, but it appears to be El Capitan.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite/El Capitan.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7.1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
Link for El Capitan.
There is no need to update one OS at a time unless you want to. Link for Mountain Lion.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible.
Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.
Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.

This was helpful, but if it's not necessary to do the one step at a time, what is the highest free update that i can get that is compatible with my system? Currently iMac 20 inch, Mid 2007. 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 RAM, ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 128 MB Graphics running OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
