Question: Create a solution that accepts three integer inputs representing the
number of times an employee travels to a job site. Output the total distance
traveled to two decimal places given the following miles per employee
commute to the job site. Output the total distance traveled to two decimal
places given the following miles per employee commute to the job site:
Employee A: 15.62 miles
Employee B: 41.85 miles
Employee C: 32.67 miles
The solution output should be in the format
Distance: total_miles_traveled miles
, Page | 2
Ans: travels = {
"A": int(input()),
"B": int(input()),
"C": int(input())
}
miles_per_employee = {"A": 15.62, "B":41.85, "C": 32.67}
total_miles_traveled = sum(travels[employee] *
miles_per_employee[employee] for employee in travels)
print(f"Distance: {total_miles_traveled:.2f} miles")
Question: Create a solution that accepts an integer input representing any
number of ounces. Output the converted total number of tons, pounds, and
remaining ounces based on the input ounces value. There are 16 ounces in a
pound and 2,000 pounds in a ton.
The solution output should be in the format
Tons: value_1 Pounds: value_2 Ounces: value_3
, Page | 3
Ans: ounces = int(input())
value_1 = ounces // (16 * 2000)
value_2 = (ounces % (16 * 2000)) // 16
value_3 = ounces % 16
print(f"Tons: {value_1}")
print(f"Pounds: {value_2}")
print(f"Ounces: {value_3}")
Question: Create a solution that accepts an integer input representing the
index value for any any of the five elements in the following list:
various_data_types = [516, 112.49, True, "meow", ("Western", "Governors",
"University"), {"apple": 1, "pear": 5}]
Using the built-in function type() and getting its name by using the .name
attribute, output data type (e.g., int", "float", "bool", "str") based on the input
index value of the list element.
The solution output should be in the format
Element index_value: data_type
Ans: index_value = int(input())
data_type = type(various_data_types[index_value]).__name__
print(f"Element {index_value}: {data_type}")
