Quick mental math tricks:
- 10%: Move the decimal point left one place. A $65.00 bill gives a $6.50 tip.
- 15%: Calculate 10% and add half of it. $6.50 + $3.25 = $9.75.
- 20%: Calculate 10% and double it. $6.50 × 2 = $13.00.
- 25%: Calculate 20% and add the 10% on top. $13.00 + $3.25 = $16.25.
Tips:
- The calculator highlights the 18% tip as the default since it falls in the middle of the standard range.
- Tip on the pre-tax amount when possible for a more accurate percentage.
- For large groups, many restaurants automatically add 18-20% gratuity – check your bill before adding more.
- Tipping customs vary by country. In many countries outside North America, tipping is not expected or is included in the price.
