Calculate and print the total cost - isha_dx - Dec-31-2018

Please help, i'm stuck.

Write Python code to allow a user to enter the number of bus tickets required. The user is then asked to enter the price of a bus ticket. Calculate and print the total cost. Ask the user to enter the amount of money offered, calculate and print the change, in the format
Change from £nn.nn is £mm.nn

no it’s a question i got given to push my python knowledge further from a friend who is helping my learn python, but i can’t seem to do it. and the friend who gave it to me hasn’t replied with some help so i thought i’d ask here.

By just giving you the code the learning aspect would be pretty much gone so the total code is in the spoiler. I'll give you some hints now so you can give it a try yourself first.
Hints:
-You have to prompt the user for the number of tickets, the price and the amount of money they give you. Use input() to prompt the user.
-After prompting the number of tickets and the price you can just calculate the total price and prompt again for the money given. Then calculate again and print it.

If you have any questions or comments don't hesitate to message

ps. Don't give up! I started learning python like 1.5 weeks ago and however the start is hard you'll get the hang of it fast!

Hide/Show

Tickets = int(input("Enter the amount of tickets you'd like to buy?: "))
Price = float(input("Enter the price of a single ticket?: "))
Total = (Tickets * Price)
print ("The price is %f euro" %Total)
Money_offered = float(input("How much money do you offer?: "))
Change = Money_offered - Total
print ("You get %f euro change" %Change)

Start with this

You can use a tutorial such as this one.

Share your code. The above discussion should be enough to help you get started.
