You are planning a picnic You know children eat one burger a

You are planning a picnic. You know: children eat one burger; adults eat two burgers; each burger weighs 1/4 pound; hamburgers come only in one pound packages. Write a MATLAB script that will: prompt the user for the number of children and the number of adults attending; compute and output (with a message) the number of 1.0 lb packages of hamburgers needed.

Solution

matalab program:

nc=1;
na=2;
p=4;
c=input(\'Enter number of children:\');
a=input(\'Enter number of adults:\');
n=c*nc+a*na;
np=n/p;
if n%p!=0
np=ceil(np);
end
prompt=\'number of packages \';
display(prompt);
np

output:

Enter number of children:5
Enter number of adults:6

prompt =

number of packages

np =

5
