⚙️ How It Works
A tip calculator helps you quickly determine how much to tip at a restaurant or service establishment. You enter the bill total and desired tip percentage, and the calculator computes the tip amount and total bill. When splitting with a group, it also divides the total evenly per person.
Tip Amount = Bill × (Tip% / 100) | Total = Bill + Tip Amount | Per Person = Total / Number of People

❓ FAQ
How much should I tip at a restaurant?
In the US, 15–20% is standard for sit-down restaurants. 20% is considered good service, 25%+ is excellent. For counter service or takeout, 10–15% is common. Tipping customs vary significantly by country.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Tipping on the pre-tax amount is technically correct and slightly reduces the tip. Most people tip on the post-tax total for simplicity. The difference is small — on a $50 bill with 8% tax, it's about $0.80.
Do I need to tip for takeout?
Tipping for takeout is optional but appreciated. 10–15% is a reasonable amount if the order was complex or the staff provided good service. Many people tip $1–2 for simple takeout orders.
How do I split a bill unevenly?
For uneven splits, calculate each person's share of the food, then add the tip percentage to each share. Alternatively, calculate the total with tip and divide by the number of people for an even split.
