My Share of the Bill

What is this?

Dinner's over, the bill's landed in the middle of the table, and someone always ends up doing math on a napkin. This does that bit for you.

Pop in the total, how many of you there are, and pick a tip — it works out exactly what everyone owes, so you can get back to arguing about who had the extra drink.

How to use it

1. Type in the total. That's the number at the bottom of the bill, before anyone's added a tip.
2. Say how many people are splitting it. Tap the + and – if it's easier than typing.
3. Pick a tip. Go with 15, 18, or 20%, or hit Custom if you'd rather set your own amount.
4. Choose how you want to handle the tip:
   • Split into total — the tip gets shared out too, so everyone pays one clean, identical number. Easiest option if you just want it done.
   • Hand over separately — the bill splits evenly, and the tip is shown per person as its own little amount, so people can chip it in separately (handy if someone wants to tip a bit extra, or leave cash).
5. That's it. Your numbers are right there — no sign-up, no app, nothing to save.

A few questions people ask

Do I tip before or after tax? Most people tip on the amount before tax, but tipping on the full total (tax included) is common too and won't raise any eyebrows. Either is fine — this tool just uses whatever total you type in.

Should we split the tip evenly or let people handle their own? Whatever's easiest for your group. Splitting evenly is simplest when everyone ordered roughly the same. Handing the tip over separately works well if someone wants to tip more generously, or if you're the sort of group that likes paying in cash.

What if the split doesn't land on a neat number? It won't always — bills rarely divide perfectly. Round up if you want to keep it simple, or just let the extra few cents slide. Nobody's going to notice a dime.

Does this save or store anything? No. Nothing you type is saved, sent anywhere, or remembered once you close the page. It's just a calculator.
