(Misc. application)

a. The data in the following chart was collected on a recent automobile trip:

Mileage

Gallons

22,495

Full tank

22,841

12.2

23,185

11.3

23,400

10.5

23,772

11.0

24,055

12.2

24,434

14.7

24,804

14.3

25,276

15.2

Write a C++ program that accepts a mileage and gallons value and calculates the miles per gallon (mpg) for that segment of the trip. The mpg is obtained as the difference in mileage between fill-ups divided by the number of gallons of gasoline used in the fill-up.


b. Modify the program written for Exercise a to also compute and display the cumulative mpg after each fill-up. The cumulative mpg is calculated as the difference between the mileage at each fill-up and the mileage at the start of the trip divided by the sum of gallons used to that point in the trip.
