Formula

  • tip = bill × tip% ÷ 100
  • total = bill + tip
  • per person = total ÷ people

Worked example

Bill 84.50, tip 18%, 3 people: tip = 84.50 × 0.18 = 15.21, total = 99.71, each person pays 99.71 ÷ 3 = 33.24 (tip share 5.07).

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate a tip?

Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100. A tip of 18% on 84.50 is 84.50 × 0.18 = 15.21, making the total 99.71.

How do I split a bill with a tip?

Add the tip to the bill and divide by the number of people. 99.71 shared by 3 is 33.24 each, including 5.07 of tip.

How much should I tip?

Customs differ by country and by service. Some places expect 15% to 20%, others a small round-up or nothing. Enter whatever percentage you prefer.

Why do the shares not add up exactly?

Each share is rounded to the nearest cent. 99.71 ÷ 3 is 33.2367, shown as 33.24, so three shares total 99.72, one cent more than the bill.
