Answer:

B. By itemizing his deductions

Step-by-step explanation:

Dean, an unmarried college professor, paid $4310 in state income tax an $1440 in mortgage interest last year. He paid more than the actual amount. So, he will itemize his deductions. If the total amount of tax is greater than the standard deduction amount, one should itemize instead of taking the standard deduction way.
