Using proportions, it is found that their bill before adding the tip was of $27.48.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

They paid a 20.2% tip, hence 120.2% = 1.202 of the price x is equals to $33.03, hence the bill before the tip is found as follows:

1.202x = 33.03

x = 33.03/1.202

x = $27.48.
