Question

In Java please,

A friend of yours would like a program that receives an input as a meal total, then add 9% tax, and finally adds 15% tip (on the total including tax). Your friend is cheap so if the total tip added is more than $8, then they will just leave $8 (they would like that condition in the program). The program should output the final amount your friend should pay.

Answer 1

1. import java.util.Scanner;
2. public class Main {
4. public static void main(String[] args) {
5. Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
6. System.out.print("Enter meal total: $");
7. double meal = input.nextDouble();
8. double finalAmount = meal + meal *0.09;
10. if(finalAmount * 0.15 > 8){
11. finalAmount = finalAmount + 8;
12. }else{
13. finalAmount = finalAmount + finalAmount * 0.15;
14. }
15. System.out.println("Final amount: $" + finalAmount);
16. }
17. }

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, create a Scanner object and print user to input total meal (Line 5-7). Next, add the 9% tax to the meal total (Line 8). Use an if statement to check if the finalAmount multiplied by the 15% of tips is bigger than 8 (Line 10), if so, only add 8 to the final amount (Line 11). If not, add 15% tips to final amount (Line 12). At last, print out the final amount (Line 15).
