20% Tip on a $50 Bill

A 20% tip on a $50 bill is $10.00. Your total with tip: $60.00. If the bill includes ~8% tax, the pre-tax subtotal is ~$46.30 and a 20% tip on that would be $9.26 (saving you $0.74).

Pro Tip

Always calculate tip on the pre-tax subtotal, not the total including tax. Most receipt-suggested tip amounts are based on the post-tax total — you can save 5-8% by calculating on the subtotal instead. For large groups (6+), many restaurants add 18-20% gratuity automatically — check your bill before adding more.
