Even split only. Itemized per-person orders are not modeled.
How this tool actually works
Everyone pays the same share of a optionally-tipped total. No one is assigned the leftover penny by name. The form runs in the browser after you press the button. Nothing is emailed, stored, or billed. If a value is missing or impossible, the result box shows an error instead of a quiet wrong number. Refresh to start over. Keep this tab open if you want to try a second set of inputs beside the first. This page is the Split the Bill Calculator. People reach it with the query split bill calculator. The relationship implemented in the widget is: each = total * (1 + tip_pct/100) / people.
A worked example
A $90 check, 10% tip, three people is $99 grand and $33 each. Walk the fields from top to bottom once with numbers you can re-check on paper. Then change a single input and confirm only the pieces that should move actually move. That habit catches unit mistakes faster than rereading a paragraph of instructions.

Mistakes this page is built to catch
Leaving tip at 0 when the table already included gratuity is fine; do not tip twice. Blank number boxes become zero in the browser, which is a different choice than 'unknown'. Mixing units in two fields, or filling both sides of a one-way converter, is rejected or skews the line. Read the error text before assuming the formula is wrong.

Units, rounding, and limits
People is a whole number. Total is the amount being split, tax-in or tax-out as you choose. Each label states the unit the field expects. The printed digits are a display rounding, not a lab certificate. Currency uses US formatting. Dates are civil YYYY-MM-DD. There is no locale switcher; if you need another convention, convert before you type. This page is the Split the Bill Calculator. People reach it with the query split bill calculator.

What to do with the result
If you only need the tip line and not the split, the restaurant tip page is tighter. Copy the result line if you need it elsewhere. Double-check with a second method when the number matters.
