Tip calculator problem - Dhaval - Jun-06-2017
Task Details : You've finished eating at a restaurant, and received this bill:
Cost of meal: $44.50
Restaurant tax: 6.75%
Tip: 15%
You'll apply the tip to the overall cost of the meal (including tax).
Instructions
First, let's declare the variable meal and assign it the value 44.50.
# Assign the variable meal the value 44.50 on line 3!
variable_meal = 44.50
variable_tax = 6.75
variable_tip = 15
print('Meal', variable_meal,)
variable_tax = (variable_meal * variable_tax / 100)
print('Tax', variable_tax,)
variable_meal_tex = ( variable_meal + variable_tax)
variable_tip = (variable_meal_tex * variable_tip / 100)
print('tip', variable_tip,)Error:Oops, try again. It looks like meal is set to 54.6293125 instead of 44.50.RE: Tip calculator problem - sparkz_alot - Jun-06-2017
