Frequently Asked Questions
How is the tip calculated?
The tip is calculated by multiplying the bill amount by the tip percentage (converted to a decimal). For example, a $100 bill with a 15% tip would result in a $15 tip.
What if I want to split the bill?
If you enter a number greater than 1 for the number of people, the calculator will divide the total bill (including tip) by the number of people to show how much each person should pay.
Can I use this calculator for any currency?
While the calculator is set up for dollars ($), you can use it with any currency as long as you enter the bill amount in the equivalent value.
