I think most restaurants would be happy if you divided the total by 100/15ths, then subtracted from the billed amount when paying as a tip; most multiplication operations terminate before divisions in terms of number of digits in the outcome. More decimals means more units of wealth to them. Money typically gets more valuable the further to the right of the decimal point it is exchanged at. Just imagine having to leave a tip for .12 cents repeating.
