I have to rewrite it to use floating point numbers so it's more accurate. I have read the lines of code and only line 3 and 5 needs to be changed.
Some things to consider: Can you explain your reasoning? Why do you think line 3 needs to be changed? Why line 5?
I came up with: print "Roosters", 100 - float(25) * 3 % 4 This is for line 3 so it is more precised.
In what way do you think this is more precise? I don't understand your comment on line 5. Why would the answer be 6.83? Can you add parentheses to the expression showing how you arrive at 6.83?
