An even split is the simplest group model: one tip percent on the shared bill, then divide the grand total equally. It ignores who ordered what—use a different method if the group wants itemized fairness.
Steps
- Agree on a tip percent (or use presets in the calculator).
- Compute tip and total with tip.
- Divide total by the number of people.
Sample
