What Is a Tip?

A tip, also called gratuity, is an additional amount of money given to a service worker to recognize the service provided. Restaurant tipping practices vary by country, business, and situation.

A tip is generally calculated as a percentage of the bill. For example, a 15% tip on a $100 bill is $15, making the total $115.

How to Calculate a Tip

The basic tip formula is:

Tip Amount = Bill Amount × Tip Percentage ÷ 100

For example, if your bill is $80 and you choose a 20% tip:

$80 × 20 ÷ 100 = $16

The total bill would therefore be:

$80 + $16 = $96

How to Split a Bill

When several people share a bill, the total amount including the tip can be divided equally among the number of people.

Amount Per Person = Total Bill ÷ Number of People

For example, if a bill including tip is $120 and four people are sharing it equally:

$120 ÷ 4 = $30 per person

Tip Examples

Bill Tip Tip Amount Total
$50 10% $5 $55
$50 15% $7.50 $57.50
$50 20% $10 $60
$100 15% $15 $115
$100 20% $20 $120
$150 20% $30 $180

Tipping Practices Vary by Location

Tipping customs are not the same everywhere. In some countries, tipping is common in restaurants and other service industries, while in other countries service charges or different payment customs are more common.

Before deciding how much to tip, consider the local customs, the restaurant's policies, and whether a service charge has already been included in the bill.
