Answer:

B). $3.55.

Explanations:

Cost of a pizza = $4.44

Cost of 4 Pizzas = 4 x Cost of a pizza

Cost of 4 pizzas = 4 x 4.44

Cost of 4 pizzas = $17.76

Mr. Peele wants to tip the driver 20% of the cost of the order

Tip = 20% of the cost of 4 pizzas

Tip = 20% of 17.76


\begin{gathered} \text{Tip = }(20)/(100)*17.76 \\ \text{Tip = 0.2 }*17.76 \\ \text{Tip = }\$3.55 \end{gathered}
