About 20% of your meal.
If the bill has a service charge then it includes a tip anyway otherways it is entirely up to you.
A tip or gratuity is an amount of money that is given to a worker such as a waiter or waitress who performs a service for you.
* No the waiter/waitress should never ask for a tip. It is up to the patron to decide if the waiter/waitress deserves a tip for good service. In some higher end restaurants tips (gratuities) are included in the price of your bill.
A waitress need to use percents to calculate his or her tip. Also, it helps to be able to add up the bill correctly.
* Every restaurant is different. Sometimes when you leave a tip the money from all waitress' or waiters are pooled and divided (bus boys may get some of the tip money as well.) With other waitress' and waiters they may be able to keep the tip for themselves. Generally you tip a waiter 15 percent if the service is good. If you don't feel within reason you have had good service you do not have to leave a tip.
I believe the proper tip amount is at least 8% of your check. Now, your tip percentage may vary by how well you believe your waiter/waitress is doing.
