Question

"please help asap" Create a function called GetTotal that will take in to it the price per pound of an item and how much an item weighs. This weight is in pounds and ounces. Make sure when you write your function that your define your parameters in the right order (price, pounds, ounces). Your function needs to return the total cost of the item. You will need the following formula:

Total Price = Price per pound * (Pounds + ounces/16)

Because this problem needs to return a value representing currency or money, we need to round the total price to 2 decimal places. To do this will need to use the round function. In Python the syntax would be:

your_variable = round(your_variable, # of spaces)

your_variable = 323.47956
your_variable = round(your_variable, 2)
print(your_variable)

This would print:

323.48

Given that an item costs 6.99 per pound and weighs 3 pounds, 2 ounces, the total price would be 21.84.

Answer 1

#function for calculaing Total price
def GetTotal(price, pounds, ounces):
   Total_Price = price*(pounds + ounces/16)
   return Total_Price

#reading values from user
price=float(input("Enter item costs per pound : "))
pounds=float(input("Enter pounds : "))
ounces=float(input("Enter ounces: "))
#storing function return value in to Total
Total=GetTotal(price, pounds, ounces)
#displaying Total price
print("Total Price : ",round(Total,2))
