Exercise 4
#Define a variable called cars and give it the integer value 100
cars = 100
#Define a variable called space_in_a_car a nd give it the floating point value 4.0
space_in_a_car = 4.0
#Define a variable called drivers, and give it the integer value 30
drivers = 30
#Define a variable called passengers, and give it the integer value 90
passengers = 90
#Define a variable called cars_not_driven, and compute it as the difference between cars and drivers
cars_not_driven = cars - drivers
#Define a variable called cars_driven and assign to it the value of the variable drivers
cars_driven = drivers
#Define a variable called carpool_capacity and compute it as the product of the values of variables, cars_driven and space_in_a_car
carpool_capacity = cars_driven * space_in_a_car
#Define a variable called average_passengers_per_car and compute it as passengers divided by cars_driven
average_passengers_per_car = passengers / cars_driven
#print the number of cars available
print "There are", cars, "cars available."
#print the number of drivers available
print "There are only", drivers, "drivers available."
#print the number of empty cars today
print "There will be", cars_not_driven, "empty cars today."
#print the number of people we can transport today
print "We can transport", carpool_capacity, "people today."
#print the number of passengers we have for carpooling today
print "We have", passengers, "to carpool today."
#print the average passengers we can place per car
print "We need to put about", average_passengers_per_car, "in each car."
