Can someone help with this question please.🙂

When you go out to eat, you always tip 20% of the bill amount. But who’s got the time to calculate the right tip amount every time? Not you that’s for sure! You’re making a program to calculate tips and save some time. Your program needs to take the bill amount as input and output the tip as a float. Sample Input 50 Sample Output 10.0

Where did you stuck? Did you know how to get user input and save it into a variable? Did you know basic arithmetic? Did you know print variables? Did you know how you calculate with percent?

You have described clearly the problem and the solution lies in the last 4 lines. "Sample Input 50 Sample Output 10.0" Follow step by step and do the following: Sample input--> Give an input (It is easy to give input in every commercial language. You have to save the input into a variable.) Let's assume that your input is the number 50 (as your example, so input=50) Sample output-->Print the output which is 10 (Why 10? Think, how 50 became 10? Take in mind the 20% which is 0.2.) In short how does 50 become 10 by using 0.2? Hope I helped and didn't confuse you.

Yes, we can. But we can't guess how. Edit your question with a link to your attempt in Code Playground and an explanation of your difficulties.
