How Tip works
Enter the bill, a tip percentage and the number of people, and the calculator returns three figures: the tip (bill × tip% ÷ 100), the total (bill plus tip) and each person's share (total ÷ people). Results update as you type. The tip is calculated on exactly the amount you enter, so decide whether that is the pre-tax or after-tax bill. Figures are not rounded to cents: they keep up to 12 significant digits, so a share like 33.2366666667 is yours to round when you pay.
Before you start
Check whether you want to tip on the subtotal before tax or on the full bill, and enter that amount. The number of people must be a whole number from 1 to 10,000.
A worked example
A bill of 84.50 with an 18% tip split between 3 people gives a tip of 15.21, a total of 99.71 and 33.2366666667 per person, so each person would pay about 33.24.
What to expect

Common questions
How do you calculate a tip?
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100. For a 60.00 bill at 20%, the tip is 60 × 20 ÷ 100 = 12.00 and the total is 72.00. This calculator does that step for you and also divides the total by the number of people sharing the bill.
Should I tip on the amount before or after tax?
Many people tip on the pre-tax subtotal, while others tip on the full total for simplicity. The difference is usually small. The calculator applies the percentage to whatever amount you type, so enter the subtotal if you want to leave tax out of the tip.
Why does the per-person amount have so many decimals?
The share is the total divided by the number of people, and the tool shows up to 12 significant digits instead of rounding to cents. A total of 99.71 split three ways is 33.2366666667. Round each share up to the next cent, here 33.24, so the group covers the full bill.
Can I split the bill unevenly?
No. The total including tip is divided equally between the people you enter, and the group size must be a whole number from 1 to 10,000. For uneven splits, run the calculator once per person with their own subtotal and the same tip percentage.
