Put the following lines of code in order to create an algorithm for this situation: if you spend more than $200, you get a 20 percent discount. If you spend less than $200 but more than $100, you get a 10 percent discount. The user inputs their spending total, and the program tells them if they get a discount and, if so, what percentage the discount will be.

Question

if total> 200 THEN
OUTPUT you get 20% discount
ELSE IF spending <200 AND spending> 100 THEN
INPUT total
OUTPUT you get a 10% discount
ELSE
OUTPUT you get no discount

Answer 1

To create a proper algorithm for the discount scenario you provided, we need to organize the lines of code in a logical sequence. Here is the correct order:

1. INPUT total
2. IF total > 200 THEN
3. OUTPUT you get a 20% discount
4. ELSE IF total < 200 AND total > 100 THEN
5. OUTPUT you get a 10% discount
6. ELSE
7. OUTPUT you get no discount

This way, the program first asks for the user’s spending total, then evaluates the total to determine the applicable discount.
