Splitting a $75 Bill
Two people at 20% pay $45 each; three pay $30 each; five pay $18 each. Seventy-five divides evenly by three and five.
| Split between | Each pays (18%) | Each pays (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| 2 people | $44.25 | $45.00 |
| 3 people | $29.50 | $30.00 |
| 4 people | $22.12 | $22.50 |
| 5 people | $17.70 | $18.00 |
| 6 people | $14.75 | $15.00 |
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 $75 in Your Head
Move the decimal point one place left to get 10% of $75, which is $7.50. Everything else builds from that number: double it for 20% ($15.00), add half of it for 15% ($11.25), or take 20% and subtract a tenth for 18% ($13.50).
Seventy-five is three-quarters of $100, so 20% of it is three-quarters of $20, which is $15.
The same shortcut works on any bill — the full method is explained here, and the tip chart covers the amounts either side of $75.
What to Leave on $75 by Service

| Good service | 20% | $15.00 | $90.00 |
| Standard service | 18% | $13.50 | $88.50 |
| The acceptable floor | 15% | $11.25 | $86.25 |
| Poor service | 10% | $7.50 | $82.50 |
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
$90 is exactly 20% on $75, which makes it the rare case where the round total and the standard tip agree.
| Rounding up to | That tip is | Which is |
|---|---|---|
| Round the total to $85 | $10.00 | 13.3% |
| Round the total to $90 | $15.00 | 20.0% |
| Round the total to $95 | $20.00 | 26.7% |

$75 Plus Sales Tax
Every figure above is calculated on $75 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 | $75.00 | $15.00 | $90.00 |
| 6% | $4.50 | $79.50 | $15.00 | $94.50 |
| 7% | $5.25 | $80.25 | $15.00 | $95.25 |
| 8% | $6.00 | $81.00 | $15.00 | $96.00 |
| 8.875% (New York City) | $6.66 | $81.66 | $15.00 | $96.66 |
| 10.25% (Chicago area) | $7.69 | $82.69 | $15.00 | $97.69 |
Tipping post-tax instead costs $1.20 more here, and is perfectly acceptable — tax and tip explains why card terminals do it that way.
