B 15%

To find the percent of the tip, we first need to calculate the amount of the tip. Subtracting the original price ($13.50) from the final price ($16.20) gives us a tip amount of $2.70.

To find the percent of the tip, we divide the tip amount by the original price and then multiply by 100:

($2.70 / $13.50) * 100 = 0.2 * 100 = 20%

Therefore, the percent of the tip is 20%.
