Question

What would be the expected output for the algorithm below if the input is 30? Algorithm: If the discount is greater than 50%, then say "Great deal!" else say "Wait for a better sale." Input: 30%

Options:
a) 50%
b) Great deal!
c) Wait for a better sale.
d) 30%

Answer 1

When the input is 30%, the expected output of the algorithm is "Wait for a better sale," as 30% is less than the required 50% for a "Great deal!" message.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected output for the algorithm when the input is 30 would be considered based on the conditional statement given. If the discount is greater than 50%, the output should be "Great deal!", otherwise the output should be "Wait for a better sale." Since the input is 30%, which is less than 50%, the appropriate output would be "Wait for a better sale."
