How it works

We multiply the bill by (1 + tax%) and (1 + tip%) to get the total, then divide by people.

Adjust tax or tip sliders to match local customs before splitting.

Formula

Total = bill × (1 + tax) × (1 + tip)\nPer-person = Total ÷ people

When to use it

  • Splitting restaurant checks among friends.
  • Including tax and tip so everyone pays their share.
  • Quickly testing different tip percentages for the group.

Tips & cautions

  • If tip is already included (auto-gratuity), set tip % to 0.
  • For uneven splits, run the calculator separately or adjust per-person manually.
  • Tip on pre-tax? Enter pre-tax amount and tax 0%, then add tip and split.
  • Even splits only; does not support itemized/uneven shares.
  • Assumes tip is applied after tax—adjust inputs if you tip on pre-tax.

Deep dive
