Mr.Oliver orders his groceries online and has them delivered to his house. His bill is $175. He has a coupon for 10% off and pla
mr Goodwill [35]

The total price including the discount and  the tip is $189

<u>Solution:</u>

Given:

Bill Amount = \$175

Coupon = 10\%

So, Discount will be \frac{(175\times10)}{100} = \$17.50

Discounted price = 175-17.50 = \$157.50

Mr. Oliver plans to give delivery driver a tip of 20\%

Now, Bill (After reducing discount) = \$157.50  

Tip = 20\%

Tip Amount = \frac{(157.50\times20)}{100} = \$31.50

Now add that tip amount,

Total Price = 157.50 + 31.50=\$189

Steps to find the discounted price:

Step 1: Consider the rate of discount

Step 2: Find the actual discount by multiplying the discount rate by the original amount

Step 3: Subtract the actual discount from the original amount to find the discounted price.
