Limits, assumptions and interpretation
Use a positive bill, a non-negative tip percentage and a whole number of people of at least 1.
- The tool applies the tip to the entire entered bill; it does not separate tax, service charges or individual orders.
- USD symbols are display formatting, not an exchange-rate conversion. Rounding individual shares can leave a small settlement difference.
