Rounding **up** (!!!) can be achieved with the ceil() function from the math module.

I mean, for this task it is not necessary to check if houses >= 3 because it is defined that it will only ever be >= 3.

Read the task description carefully: You are supposed to *round up*. And what happens when one inputs less than 3 houses?

С A Use round(num, decimals) function. Example: round(3.6184, 2) -> 3.62 round(381.837837, 3) -> 381.838

Thanks, I haven't taken the function courses yet, so I can't solve this problem.

The task description asks us to ROUND UP, not to ROUND. Note the "up".
