How to calculate a tip
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage, then divide by 100. Add the tip to the bill for the total, and divide by the number of people to split it.
tip = bill × tip % ÷ 100 · total = bill + tip
Example: dinner for two comes to 64.50. An 18% tip is 64.50 × 18 ÷ 100 = 11.61, so the total is 76.11 and each person pays 38.05. For a quick 20% in your head, take 10% (move the decimal point one place left) and double it.

Questions
How do I calculate a tip?
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100. For a 20% tip on a 45.00 bill: 45 × 20 ÷ 100 = 9.00, so you pay 54.00 in total. A quick way to get 20% in your head: move the decimal point one place to the left (10%) and double it.
Should I tip on the amount before or after tax?
Either is fine. Tipping on the amount before tax is the traditional rule in the United States and Canada, but many people tip on the total because it is the number at the bottom of the bill. The difference is small: on a 60 bill with 8% tax, a 20% tip is 12.00 before tax or 12.96 after.
How much should I tip at a restaurant?
In the United States, 15 to 20% for table service is usual, and 20% or more for great service. In much of Europe service is often included in the prices, and leaving a few extra percent or rounding up is a kind gesture rather than an obligation. In Japan and South Korea, tipping is not part of the culture.
How do I split a tip between several people?
Enter the number of people in the calculator: it divides both the tip and the total. If everyone ordered very different amounts, work out each person's share of the bill first and apply the same tip percentage to each share.
Is the tip already included in my bill?
Look for a line called service charge, service compris, servizio or gratuity. If it is there, the tip is already paid, though in some places people still round up for good service. Restaurants in the United States sometimes add an automatic gratuity for large groups.
What does rounding up do?
It rounds each person's total up to the next whole number, so nobody has to deal with coins, and the tip goes up by the difference. The calculator shows the real tip percentage after rounding.
