#2. Write a program that computes and displays a 15 percent tip when the price of a meal is input by the user. (Hint: the tip is computed by multiplying the price of the meal by 0.15.)

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 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)
