Splitting a $175 Bill
Two people at 20% pay $105 each; five pay $42 each. One hundred and seventy-five splits cleanly by five and seven.
| Split between | Each pays (18%) | Each pays (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| 2 people | $103.25 | $105.00 |
| 3 people | $68.83 | $70.00 |
| 4 people | $51.62 | $52.50 |
| 5 people | $41.30 | $42.00 |
| 6 people | $34.42 | $35.00 |
Always add the tip to the full bill first and divide afterwards. Splitting first and letting everyone round their own share up leaves the server short — the main calculator handles this correctly.
Working Out $175 in Your Head
Move the decimal point one place left to get 10% of $175, which is $17.50. Everything else builds from that number: double it for 20% ($35.00), add half of it for 15% ($26.25), or take 20% and subtract a tenth for 18% ($31.50).
Ten percent of $175 is $17.50. Double it for $35 at 20%, or add half again for $26.25 at 15%.
The same shortcut works on any bill — the full method is explained here, and the tip chart covers the amounts either side of $175.

| Service | Percentage | Tip | Total |

Below 15% reads as a deliberate comment rather than a small tip, so it is worth speaking to the manager as well. The average tip percentage guide covers where these ranges came from.
Rounding the Total Up Instead
$210 is exactly 20%. $200 is a common round total instead, which works out to 14.3% — under the standard range.
| Rounding up to | That tip is | Which is |
|---|---|---|
| Round the total to $200 | $25.00 | 14.3% |
| Round the total to $225 | $50.00 | 28.6% |

Every figure above is calculated on $175 before sales tax, which is the US convention. What the bill actually comes to depends on where you are — these are the totals at the rates you are most likely to meet.
| Sales tax rate | Tax | Bill with tax | 20% tip (pre-tax) | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No sales tax (OR, MT, NH, DE) | $0.00 | $175.00 | $35.00 | $210.00 |
| 6% | $10.50 | $185.50 | $35.00 | $220.50 |

| 8.875% (New York City) | $15.53 | $190.53 | $35.00 | $225.53 |
| 10.25% (Chicago area) | $17.94 | $192.94 | $35.00 | $227.94 |
Tipping post-tax instead costs $2.80 more here, and is perfectly acceptable — tax and tip explains why card terminals do it that way.
