Tip Calculator — Calculate Tip & Split Bill

Calculate the tip amount and split the bill equally between any number of people.

How to Calculate a Tip

To calculate a tip, multiply the bill amount by the tip percentage. For a $60 restaurant bill with a 20% tip: $60 × 0.20 = $12 tip. Total = $72. To split between 4 people: $72 ÷ 4 = $18 each. This tip calculator handles all of this automatically — enter the bill, choose a tip percentage, and set the number of people.

How Much Should You Tip?

Restaurants: 15-20% in the US, 10% in the UK, 5-10% in India (not mandatory). Food delivery: 10-15% or a flat amount based on order size. Taxi/Ride-share: 10-15%. Hotel housekeeping: $2-5 per night. Hair salons/spas: 15-20%. The percentage buttons above cover all common scenarios.

Quick Mental Math for Tips

For 10%: move the decimal point one place left ($85 → $8.50). For 20%: double the 10% amount ($8.50 × 2 = $17). For 15%: take 10%, then add half ($8.50 + $4.25 = $12.75). For 18%: take 20% and subtract a bit ($17 − $1.70 = $15.30).
