What is a tip calculator?
A tip calculator helps you quickly determine how much to tip at restaurants, cafés, and other service establishments. Enter the bill amount, select a tip percentage, and specify the number of people to see the exact amount each person should pay.
How to calculate a tip?
The tip is calculated using the formula: Tip = Bill amount × (Tip percentage / 100). The total: Total = Bill amount + Tip. For example, if the bill is €50 and you want to tip 15%: 50 × 0.15 = €7.50, total = €57.50.
How much should you tip?
Common tip percentages vary by situation:
- 10% — minimum standard tip for acceptable service
- 15% — average tip for good service
- 20% — tip for excellent service
- 25% — tip for exceptional service
How to split the bill between multiple people?
When splitting a bill, the total including the tip is divided equally among all people. The formula: Per person = (Bill + Tip) / Number of people. For example, if 4 people share a €100 bill with a 20% tip: total = €120, each person pays €30.
Tip calculation examples
Example 1: Bill is €80, tip is 15%. Tip = 80 × 0.15 = €12. Total = €92.
Example 2: Bill is €120 split between 3 people, tip is 20%. Total = €144. Each person pays €48, of which €8 is the tip.
