Restaurant bill calculator
Calculate a restaurant tip, the final bill and each person's share
Enter the bill amount, the tip percentage and the number of people sharing equally. The calculator shows the tip amount, bill plus tip, and the amount each person pays. It uses the same currency as the amount you enter and does not convert currencies.
How to use the tip calculator
- Enter the bill amount before adding any extra tip.
- Enter the tip percentage as a number, such as 10 for a 10% tip.
- Enter the number of people who will split the bill equally.
- Select Run tool and review the tip, total bill and per-person amount.
- Check the restaurant receipt for any service charge or gratuity already included before paying.
Tip calculator formula and worked examples
Tip = bill amount × tip percentage ÷ 100. Total = bill amount + tip. Per-person share = total ÷ number of people.
For a bill of 2,000 and a 10% tip, the tip is 200 and the total is 2,200. If four people split the total equally, each person pays 550. For a $60 bill, a 15% tip is $9, an 18% tip is $10.80 and a 20% tip is $12. Split three ways, the final totals are $23, $23.60 and $24 per person. These are examples only; local tipping customs vary.
Service charges, unequal splits and limitations
This calculator does not decide what tip is customary in a particular country, restaurant or situation. It does not detect taxes, service charges or gratuities printed on a receipt. If a service charge or tip is already included, check the receipt and adjust the amount you enter to avoid adding it twice. The split is equal; it does not calculate separate shares for people who ordered different items.
