How is a tip calculated?

Multiply the bill by the tip percentage and divide by 100.

How does splitting the bill work?

The bill plus tip is divided equally by the number of people.

Is the tip on the amount before or after tax?

This calculator applies the tip to whatever bill amount you enter.

Why must the number of people be a whole number?

A bill is shared between whole people, so 1 to 100 is accepted.

Tip = bill × tip percentage ÷ 100. Add the tip to the bill for the total, then divide by the number of people to split it. For example, a 10% tip on ₹2,000 is ₹200, making ₹2,200 — ₹550 each for four people.

What is the Tip Calculator?

What the tool does, who it is for and what it cannot tell you.

A tip calculator works out a tip as a percentage of the bill and, if you are sharing, how much each person owes.

Splitting the bill divides the total — bill plus tip — equally by the number of people.

How does the Tip Calculator work?

Tip Calculator formula

The exact maths behind every number on this page.

Bill: Bill amount before the tip
Tip%: Tip percentage
People: Number of people sharing the bill (whole number)

Tip Calculator calculation example

Hypothetical example: a ₹3,000 dinner, 10% tip, split between 3 people.

1Tip3,000 × 10 ÷ 100 = ₹300
2Total3,000 + 300 = ₹3,300
3Per person3,300 ÷ 3 = ₹1,100 (tip ₹100 each)

Each person pays ₹1,100.

Important assumptions

What this calculation includes, and what it leaves out.

The total is split equally. Amounts are shown to two decimal places, so per-person shares may need small rounding.

Financial tips
