Lesson 18 pyton beginners

Question

When you go out to eat, you always tip 20% of the bill amount. But who’s got the time to calculate the right tip amount every time? Not you that’s for sure! You’re making a program to calculate tips and save some time.

Your program needs to take the bill amount as input and output the tip as a float.

Sample Input
50

Sample Output
10.0

Answer 3

1. Take input as float
2. Calculate the 20% of it
3. Print the calculated amount in 'float'

Answer 4

bill = int(input())
tip=("100÷50%20")
print("x")
#your code goes here

Answer 5

I'm trying this

Answer 6

Mario Fiorino

Why giving the output between " "??

It will always print the value: x
And why printing x??

When you have taken tip = ...
Then why printing x??

1.Remove the "" from your code
2. To calculate 20% we do like this:

(20/100)*50
(if we want to calculate 20% of 50)

You have to just change the value from 50 to 'bill'.

And use this:
print(tip)

//

If you will get any problems again, then alert us

Answer 7

bill = int(input()) #input is may be float,

tip=("100÷50%20") " This is just a string, don't put in quotes "", and in systems / is the division symbol, not ÷
But you need to take input 'bill' , into calculations
So
tip = bill*20/100

#print("x") #this prints string x only, print tip

print(tip)

#put all together, take input as float, instead of int type bill=float ( input() )
