Worked Example
Let's say you order two Double-Double burgers at $5.50 each, one fries at $3.50, and a drink at $2.50 in California. You want to leave a 15% tip.
- Subtotal = $5.50 + $5.50 + $3.50 + $2.50 = $17.00
- Tax = $17.00 × 8.25% = $1.40
- Tip = ($17.00 + $1.40) × 15% = $2.89
- Total = $17.00 + $1.40 + $2.89 = $21.29
Using the calculator with these values should give you a total of $21.29.
