What If Everyone Ordered Different Amounts?
Equal splitting is fast, but if one person had a $12 salad while another had a $45 steak, it's not exactly fair. Here's what a per-item split would look like on a $200 tab between 5 people:
| Person | Order | Equal Split | Fair Split |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alex | $56.00 | $40.00 | $67.20 |
| Jordan | $28.80 | $40.00 | $34.56 |
| Sam | $33.79 | $40.00 | $40.55 |
| Riley | $30.94 | $40.00 | $37.13 |
| Taylor | $50.47 | $40.00 | $60.56 |

Tips for Splitting a $200 Bill
- Decide before ordering. Agree on equal vs per-item before the food arrives to avoid awkwardness at the end.
- Split tax and tip proportionally. If you ordered 40% of the food, pay 40% of the tax and tip — not an equal share.
- Round up, not down. If each person's share is $48.00, round to $48.00. Servers prefer clean numbers and the difference is negligible.
- One person pays, others Venmo. Most restaurants prefer one payment. Have one person put their card down and collect from everyone else digitally.
