Step-by-Step Solution: $180.00 / 6 = $30.00
Step 1
Identify Bill Total and Number of People
Total bill is $180.00 to be divided among 6 people.
Bill = $180.00, Diners = 6
Step 2
Divide the Total Bill by the Headcount
Divide $180.00 by 6: $180.00 ÷ 6 = $30.00 per person.
$180.00 / 6 = $30.00 each
Step 3
Check for Cent Rounding Discrepancy
Multiplying $30.00 × 6 = $180.00. 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 × $30.00 = $180.00
Step 4
Including Tip in the Split
If you want to include tip: With 15% tip each person pays $34.50, with 18% tip $35.40, and with 20% tip $36.00.
With 20% tip: ($180.00 × 1.20) / 6 = $36.00 each
