Let us say the original price of taco before tip was x dollars.
Percentage of tip given =25 %
Amount of tip given = $2
Now we can say that 25 % of total amount = 2 dollars.
Making an equation,
![0.25x =2](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/ox3fkt33jwddt04489u6peekwo5d3olkqw.png)
Now we have to solve for x, so dividing both sides by 0.25,
x= 8
Answer : The original price of tacos before tip was $8.
