Answer: B.) 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the number of pizzas ordered.

then the number of sandwiches = [tex]2(p-4)[/tex]

According to the question,

[tex]2(p-4)=62\\\Rightarrow\ p-4=31.............[\text{ Divide 2 on both the sides }]\\\Rightarrow\ p=31+4...................[\text{ Add 4 on both the sides }]\\\Rightarrow\ p=35[/tex]

Hence, the number of pizzas ordered = 35.
