The total price for Store A is given as $1,272 dollars, and the total price for Store B is given as $1,444 dollars and 50 cents. The difference between these two prices is $1,444.50 - $1,272 = $172.50.
Since both repairs have a gratuity of 15 percent added to the total price, this difference in total price includes gratuity.
Therefore, the difference in total price between the two repairs, including gratuity, is $172.50.
So, the correct answer is $172.50.
