B. 3 centimeters

Since Lewis City and Bellstown are 120 km apart and the distance between them on the drawing is 6 centimeters, each centimeter on the drawing represents 20 km.

Therefore, the distance between Jenkinsville and Bellstown on the drawing would be 40 km / 20 km per cm = 2 cm.

Therefore, the distance between Lewis City and Jenkinsville on Arturo's drawing would be 6 cm - 2 cm = 4 cm.

So, the correct answer is B. 3 centimeters.
