How it works

tip = bill × tip % ÷ 100

A percentage is “per hundred”, so 18% of the bill is the bill times 18, divided by 100. Add that to the bill for the total, then divide by the number of people to split it evenly. A quick check: 10% is the bill with the decimal point moved one place left; 20% is double that.

  1. Find the tip $50.00 × 18 ÷ 100 = $9.00
  2. Add it to the bill $50.00 + $9.00 = $59.00
