Give the step-by-step reasoning process and then the final answer. At the Delicious Delhi restaurant, Hilary bought three samosas at $2 each and four orders of pakoras, at $3 each, and a mango lassi, for $2. She left a 25% tip. How much did the meal cost Hilary, with tax, in dollars?
The samosas cost 3 * 2 = 6 dollars each. The pakoras cost 4 * 3 = 12 dollars each. The food came to 6 + 12 + 2 = 20 dollars. The tip was an additional 20 * .25 = 5 dollars. The total is 20 + 5 = 25.
The final answer: 25.
