Declare MealPrice as a float

Declare Tip as a float

Write “Enter price of meal:”

Input MealPrice (get price to calculate)

Set Tip = MealPrice * 0.15 (calculate)

Write MealPrice (output data)

#3 Write a program that converts a temperature input in degrees Celsius into degrees Fahrenheit and displays both temperatures.

Declare Celsius as a float

Declare Fahrenheit as a float

Declare DegreeCesius as a float

Declare DegreeFahrenheit as a float

Write “Enter temperature in degrees Celsius to convert to Fahrenheit:”

Input DegreesCelsius (get degrees to be converted)

Fahrenheit = (9/5) * Celsius + 32 (calculate)

Write DegreesFahrenheit (output data)

#4 Write a program that computes and displays the batting average for a baseball player when the user inputs the number of hits and at-bats for that player. Batting average is computed by dividing the number of hits by the number of at-bats.

Declare Hits as an Integer

Declare BatAvg as a float

Declare Average as a float

Write “Enter Players number of hit and at-bats:”

Input Hits (get number to be calculated)

Input AtBats (get number to be calculated)

Set Average = (Hits + AtBats) / 2 (calculate)

Write “The average of” (output data)

Write Hits + “and” + AtBats (output data)

Write “is” + Average (output data)
