Solution

To find out how much the bill was before the tip was added, we need to follow these steps:

  1. We know that the total bill, including the tip, is 25.50 Euros and that the tip is 15% of the original bill. This means that 25.50 Euros represents 115% of the original bill (100% for the bill itself and 15% for the tip).

  2. To find out the value of the original bill, we need to calculate what 1% would be and then multiply it by 100 to get 100%.

  3. To find 1%, we divide 25.50 Euros by 115: 25.50 / 115 = 0.22173913 Euros.

  4. To find 100%, we multiply 0.22173913 Euros by 100: 0.22173913 * 100 = 22.173913 Euros.

  5. Rounding to two decimal places, the original bill was approximately 22.17 Euros before the tip was added.
