Answer to Question #81708 in Python for Robert Ruiz

Question

Write a program that inputs the length of two pieces of fabric in feet and inches (as whole numbers) and prints the total.

Enter the Feet for the first piece of fabric: 3
Enter the Inches for the first piece of fabric: 11

Enter the Feet for the second piece of fabric: 2
Enter the Inches for the second piece of fabric: 5
It displays:

Feet: 6 Inches: 4
HOW TO GET THE RIGHT CODE???

print ("Enter the Feet for the first piece of fabric: 11")
print ("Enter the Inches for the first piece of fabric: 11")
print ("Enter the Feet for the second piece of fabric: 5")
print ("Enter the Inches for the second piece of fabric: 5")
print ("Feet: 17 Inches: 4")
print ("Enter the Feet for the first piece of fabric: 4")
print ("Enter the Inches for the first piece of fabric: 5")
print ("Enter the Feet for the second piece of fabric: 7")
print ("Enter the Inches for the second piece of fabric: 6")
print ("Feet: 11 Inches: 11")

Answer 1

a_ft = int(input("Enter the Feet for the first piece of fabric: "))

a_inc = int(input("Enter the Inches for the first piece of fabric: "))

b_ft = int(input("Enter the Feet for the second piece of fabric: "))

b_inc = int(input("Enter the Inches for the second piece of fabric: "))

sum_inc = a_inc + b_inc

# select the whole and the fractional part

inc_to_ft = sum_inc // 12

rem_from_div = sum_inc % 12

sum_ft = a_ft + b_ft + inc_to_ft

print("Feet: {} Inches: {}".format(sum_ft, rem_from_div))
