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

Solution:

Given:

Bill Amount =
$\$175$

Coupon =
$10\%$

So, Discount will be
$((175*10))/(100) = \$17.50$

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 =
$((157.50*20))/(100) = \$31.50$

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.
