Step by step
The formula
total = bill × (1 + tip/100); per person = total / people
A tip is a percentage added on top of the bill, so the maths is one multiplication and one division. Working out the tip first, then splitting the grand total evenly, avoids the classic end-of-dinner confusion about who owes what.
