How to Use This Calculator
1
Enter the bill amount and tip percentage
Type your pre-tax bill total. For tip percentage: 15% is the traditional standard, 18% is considered good service, and 20% or more is excellent. Some restaurants add an automatic gratuity for large parties — check your bill first.
2
Split the bill evenly
Enter the number of people splitting the bill. The calculator divides the total (bill + tip) evenly. If one person is covering the tip, set people to 1.
3
Round up as a courtesy
It's customary to round up to the nearest dollar when splitting. The per-person amount is a starting point — add a dollar to make the math easier and show appreciation.
