Quick Answer
Multiply the bill by the tip percentage to find the gratuity, then add the tip to the bill and split the total if needed.
How to Calculate Gratuity
- Enter the bill amount.
- Enter the tip percentage.
- Enter how many people are splitting the bill.
- Read the tip, total, and per-person amount.
Formula
Tip = bill x tip percentage / 100
Total = bill + tip
Per person = total / number of people
Worked Examples
Example 1: An 85 dollar bill with an 18 percent tip adds 15.30.
Example 2: Splitting the total two ways halves the final amount each person pays.
Example 3: A 20 percent tip is simply the bill multiplied by 0.20.
