Our Split Bill Calculator divides a total bill equally among people, including tax and tip.

Key Formulas

  • Total Amount = Bill + Tax + Tip
  • Amount Per Person = Total Amount / People
  • (Reverse) Total Amount = Amount Per Person * People

Example: If Bill = $150, Tax = $12, Tip = $18, and People = 6, then Total Amount = $180 and Amount Per Person = $30.

Results are rounded to 2 decimals. Please double-check against your receipt; rounding may cause a $0.01 difference.

Our Split Bill Calculator is an online tool that helps multiple individuals calculate the bill fairly. Whether you have booked a shared hotel room, dined out with friends, bought something, or are on vacation, this calculator can make splitting bills easier.

If you ever rent an apartment, house, equipment, vehicle, or face any shared rent situation, use this rent split calculator to split the rent among each other.

In this guide, we cover everything about bill splitting, including how it works and some examples.

What is a Split Bill Calculator?

A Split Bill Calculator is an online tool that helps divide a total bill evenly among multiple individuals. This calculator avoids confusion when tax or tip is involved, and quickly tells you how much each person owes when the bill is split equally. This tool works best for splitting the bill equally among each person and does not support percentage, income, or item-based bill splitting.

For instance, if the total bill is $150 with $20 tax, and there are 3 people involved, you simply need to fill in the data into the calculator. The calculator will instantly show you that each person owes $56.67 (including tax or tip), and the total bill with tax is $170.

How to Calculate a Split Bill — Example

Our calculator makes bill splitting simple and quick when multiple people are involved. If you are wondering what formulas are used to calculate a split bill, along with examples, don't panic. Below, we show you the key formulas and examples that break down the steps involved in calculating it:

  • Total bill with tip/tax = base bill + tax + tip

  • Bill per person = total bill (with tip & tax) / number of people

We do our best to ensure the calculator is correct and accurate, but remember to treat this tool for informational purposes only. We don’t provide any legal or money-related advice. Please contact a qualified professional.

Example 1: Basic bill splitting

Let's assume there are 4 friends, and the total bill is $100 with $0 tax/tip.

  • Total bill: $100,
  • People: 4,
  • Tax/Tip: $0

First, we have all the data needed to calculate the per person bill. Divide the total bill by 4:

  • Total bill with Tax/Tip = $100
  • Amount per person = $100 / 4 = $25

Example 2: Split with Tip and Tax

  1. Let’s consider a scenario where the bill is $150, along with an $18 tip and $12 tax, shared among 6 people who want to split it equally.
    • Total bill: $150
    • Tax: $12
    • Tip: $18
    • People: 6
  2. To split the bill, first add the total bill with tip and tax:
    • Total bill with tip & tax = $150 + $12 + $18 = $180
  3. Now, divide the total bill that includes tip and tax by the number of people:
    • Amount per person = $180 / 6 = $30

This example indicates that each person will pay $30 to cover the total bill, including tax and tip.

Wondering where this calculator fits best?
