Yes, exactly what they said. That is how you do it. Whenever you have a percentage of something, you multiply it by the decimal version, then add what you got onto the original number

To find the total amount Leo should give, simply find the 20% of his bill then add it.

Total cost = $45.90 + ($45.90 × 0.20)
Total cost = $45.90 + $9.18
Total cost = $55.08

Therefore, Leo should give $55.08 in total to leave a 20% tip.
