Step-by-Step Solution: $160.00 / 6 = $26.67
Step 1
Identify Bill Total and Number of People
Total bill is $160.00 to be divided among 6 people.
Bill = $160.00, Diners = 6
Step 2
Divide the Total Bill by the Headcount
Divide $160.00 by 6: $160.00 ÷ 6 = $26.67 per person.
$160.00 / 6 = $26.67 each
Step 3
Check for Cent Rounding Discrepancy
Multiplying $26.67 × 6 = $160.02. If there is an odd cent difference, one person can round up by 1 cent or the change can be covered by the group.
6 × $26.67 = $160.02
Step 4
Including Tip in the Split
If you want to include tip: With 15% tip each person pays $30.67, with 18% tip $31.47, and with 20% tip $32.00.
With 20% tip: ($160.00 × 1.20) / 6 = $32.00 each
