Enter bill amount, tip percentage, and number of people.
How it works
The tip is calculated as: Tip = Bill Amount × (Tip % ÷ 100). The total bill is the original amount plus the tip. Each person's share is the total divided by the number of people.
Common tip rates are 15% for adequate service, 18% for good service, and 20% or more for excellent service. Adjust to local customs and your own experience.
Practical example
A dinner bill of 84.50 with an 18% tip: Tip = 84.50 × 0.18 = 15.21. Total = 84.50 + 15.21 = 99.71.
Split among 3 people, each person pays 33.24. This avoids the awkward mental math at the table and ensures everyone pays their fair share.
Frequently asked questions
