What is the Tip & Tax Helper?

The Tip & Tax Helper is a specialized calculator designed to solve the common problem of determining the final cost of a meal or service. Unlike standard calculators, it distinctly separates 'Tax' and 'Tip' calculations, ensuring you don't accidentally tip on the post-tax amount (unless you want to). It also includes a built-in splitter to share the cost with friends.
