⚙️How it works

The tip is the bill multiplied by the tip percentage. The total adds that tip back to the bill, then divides by the number of people.

🧮Formula

tip = bill × tip% / 100; total = bill + tip; each = total / people

Worked example: splitting a restaurant bill

A bill of 86 with an 18% tip is 15.48 in tip and 101.48 in total. Split across 2 people, each person pays 50.74.

Interpretation notes

Confirm whether tax is already inside the bill before you add a tip. Some receipts show tax separately, and tipping on the pre-tax amount is a common choice.

❓FAQ

Should I tip on the tax?

That is a preference. If the bill already includes tax, the tip is calculated on that full amount.

Can the tip be zero?

Yes. A tip of 0% returns the original bill split by the number of people.

Does it round to cash?

Results are shown to two decimal places, which matches typical currency amounts.
