You're not told anything except that the first 4 deliveries are late. So the probability is (0.2)^4, assuming that each delivery is independent.

I have been trying that for a long time...

the only choices i have are 0.1296
0.05184
0.00128
0.0016
None

I guess it none of the above.

Thanks alot sir.
I really appreciated your help.
