Calculating a tip and splitting the bill

Enter the bill, choose a tip percentage and the number of people to see the tip, the total and each person share.

The formulas

  • Tip = bill ร— tip% รท 100
  • Total = bill + tip
  • Per person = total รท number of people

Worked example

A dinner bill is โ‚น1,200 and you want to leave 10%. The tip is โ‚น120, the total is โ‚น1,320 and if four people split it, each pays โ‚น330.

Tipping norms differ by country

In the United States 15โ€“20% is customary at restaurants. In many European countries a service charge is already included and rounding up is enough. In India 5โ€“10% is common when no service charge is added. Always check your bill for an existing service charge before adding a tip, so you do not pay twice.

Frequently asked questions

Should the tip be calculated before or after tax?

Both are used. Many people tip on the pre-tax amount, but tipping on the total is also accepted. Choose what is customary where you are.
