Important assumptions and limitations
This splits the bill and tip evenly. It does not account for different orders, taxes added later or card surcharges.
Calculator outputs are estimates unless the underlying arithmetic is exact by definition. For decisions involving tax filing, lending, health, contracts or institutional grading rules, use the calculator as a first check and confirm the final decision with the relevant authoritative source.
