This lab was simple and straight forward. The instructions were to calculate the total cost of a meal. I assigned the variables meal with the value 44.50, tax with the value 6.75 / 100, and tip 15 / 100. Then, to get the value of the meal with the tax you reassign the value of meal to meal + meal * tax. The values of this equation would be 44.50 + 44.50 * .0675, this equation would return 47.50. Next, you need to reassign meal again in order to get the total cost of meal; this time including the tip. The variable total would be assigned to meal + meal * tip, when the values are inserted it would be 47.50 + 47.50 * .15. This would print the result of the variable total as 54.63.
