- Optional: Custom shares – If everyone pays equally, leave Shares blank. For unequal splits, enter comma-separated numbers (e.g.,
2,1,1for three people where one pays double). The number of shares must match the number of people, and each share must be a positive number. - Click Calculate to see the result: the amount each person pays (first person shown) and a breakdown below.
Note: All monetary values are in dollars (or any currency). Shares represent relative proportions, not percentages. For example, shares 2,1 mean the first person pays twice as much as the second.
