Tip Calculator
Calculate the tip amount and split a bill evenly between any number of people.
The classic restaurant-table calculation: how much to tip, what the total comes to, and — for a group — exactly how much each person owes, so the table isn't doing mental percentage math and long division at the same time while the check sits there.
Example: A $64.50 bill with an 18% tip split between 3 people comes to an $11.61 tip, a $76.11 total, and $25.37 per person — small enough per-person rounding that it's worth agreeing whether to round up to $25.50 each before splitting.
How it works
- Enter the bill amount, tip percentage, and number of people splitting it
- Press Calculate
- The tip amount, total bill, and per-person share appear instantly, calculated on your device
Frequently asked questions
What tip percentage is standard?
In the US, 15–20% is typical for sit-down restaurant service, with 18–20% common for good service — customs vary significantly by country and service type, so this is a US-centric guideline, not a universal rule.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax bill amount?
Etiquette guides generally recommend tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, though tipping on the post-tax total is common in practice too and only changes the tip by a small amount. Enter whichever bill amount you intend to base the tip on.
