Question 14: Input Party Supplies

Scenario: Party Supplies Organizer

Emma is organizing a picnic and needs to prepare picnic baskets. Each picnic basket will contain sandwiches, drinks, and snacks.

Write a Python program to calculate the total number of items Emma will need for the picnic.

1. Start by asking for Emma’s name and store it in a variable called name.

2. Ask how many picnic baskets she wants to make and store that number in a variable called baskets.

3. Ask how many sandwiches she wants per basket and store that number in a variable called sandwiches_per_basket.

4. Ask how many drinks she wants per basket and store that number in a variable called drinks_per_basket.

5. Ask how many snacks she wants per basket and store that number in a variable called snacks_per_basket.

6. Multiply each item by the number of baskets to get the total items:

   • Total sandwiches = sandwiches_per_basket * baskets
   • Total drinks = drinks_per_basket * baskets
   • Total snacks = snacks_per_basket * baskets

7. Add all the totals and store in a variable called total_items.

8. Print a friendly message like this:

   • “Hi [name]! You need a total of [total_items] items to fill [baskets] picnic baskets.”
