Using structure and functions

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
struct PaintingCompany {
double galonsOfPaint,labor, hours, total;
}test;

void print(){
cout<<"Galons of paint needed: " << test.galonsOfPaint << endl;
cout<<"Hours needed: "<< test.hours << endl;
cout<<"Labor needed: $"<< test.labor << endl;
cout<<"Total: $"<< test.total << endl;
}

int main ()
{
int wallLength;
cout<<"Enter the length of the wall: ";
cin >> wallLength;
test.hours = (wallLength*8)/115;
test.galonsOfPaint = test.hours/8.0;
test.labor = test.hours*20;
test.total = test.labor;
print();
system("pause");
return 0;
