Question

Python 3.4.1 Help Please:
I will post my code that i have gotten so far below,
What i need to do is if given x amount of inches, and a cost (per yard), how do i find the total cost?

I know i have to convert it to yards but just having a brain fart. Please help me out here

Answer 1

```
total = eval(input('How many inches of material? '))
cost = eval(input('What is the cost (per yard)? '))
age = eval(input('What is your age? '))


#Start Math
yards = total // 36
total = total % 36
feet = total // 12
total = total % 12
inches = total
#End Math

print('You bought ' + str(yards) + ' yards, ' + str(feet) + ' feet ' + str(inches) + ' inches of material')


#Start Math Part II

#End Math Part II

print('Material Cost: ')
```

Answer 3

Take your inches, we are assuming linear, and divide it by 36 to get the inches to yard conversion.
\[\frac{total \space inches}{1} \times \frac{1\space yard}{36\space inches} = \frac{yards}{1}\]
Then multiply your cost per yard for the total.
\[\frac{total \space yard}{1} \times \frac{dollars}{1 \space yard} = \frac{dollars}{1}\]
