Formula of Reverse Tip Calculator
The formula used by the Tip Calculator is straightforward:
Original bill = Total bill / (1 + Tip percentage / 100)
Here’s how it works:
- Total bill: This is the final amount you paid, including the tip.
- Tip percentage: This is the percentage of the tip you added to the bill. Convert it into a decimal first (e.g., 15% becomes 0.15).
