How to calculate a tip
Multiply the bill amount by the desired tip percentage and add it to the original amount: total = bill × (1 + tip ÷ 100). To split between several people, just divide that total by the number of people.
What is a standard tip
Tipping conventions vary widely by country. In the US, 15–20% is common at sit-down restaurants; in many other countries a smaller amount, or none at all (when service is already included), is standard — check the local convention where you're dining.
Example
A $200 bill, with a 10% tip, split between 4 people: tip = $20, total = $220, and each person pays $55.
