Question

Write a program that reads a number in feet, converts it to meters, and displays the result. One foot is 0.305 meters. INPUT and PROMPTS.The program prompts for the feet with the message "Enter a value for feet: ". OUTPUT. The output is of the form "x feet is y meters" where x is the number read in and y is the number of meters computed by the program.

Answer 1

Answer:

using namespace std;

int main()

{

float x,y;

cout<<"Enter a value of feet: ";

cin>>x;

y=x*0.305;

cout<<x<<" feet is "<<y<<" meters";

return 0;

}

Explanation:

The program is written in C++ language but the problem can be carried out in any language using the premises given here.

You have to declare your variables for feet and meters (x and y in this case). The you prompt the user via the message on screen given by the cout word and the << sign, and the value read via the cin word and the >> sign and stored into x. Then you multiply x by 0.305 and store it in y, and show them on screen via cout. Note that literal words are written between " " and variables are written just like that.
