Question

I'm having trouble with the following Python homework assignment question in ZyBooks:

2.14 HW: Driving costs

Driving is expensive. Write a program with a car's miles/gallon and gas dollars/gallon (both floats) as input, and output the gas cost for 10 miles, 50 miles, and 400 miles.

Ex: If the input is:

20.0
3.1599

Then the output is:

1.579950 7.899750 63.198000

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

CODE

miles = float(input()) # miles per gallon
dollars = float(input()) # dollars per gallon

ms = [10, 50, 400] # taking into a list
result = [] # will have results

for m in ms:
result.append((dollars/miles)*m)

print(("%.6f %.6f %.6f") % (result[0], result[1], result[2]))
