What Is A Tip Calculator?

A tip calculator helps you calculate how much to tip, the total bill after tip and how much each person should pay when splitting the bill. It is useful at restaurants, cafes, bars, hotels and anywhere tipping is common.

How To Calculate A Tip

To calculate a tip, multiply the bill amount by the tip percentage. For example, a 15% tip on a 50 bill is 7.50. Add the tip to the bill total, then divide by the number of people if you are splitting the bill.
