Answer: C
Part II: Programming Question (10 points)
Complete the following C program so it reads in a weight in kilograms and prints the
corresponding weight in pounds and ounces.
A sample run of the program is shown below:
Enter a weight in kg: 9

9.000000 kg is 19 pounds and 12 ounces
Another sample run of the program:
Enter a weight in kg: 2.5

2.500000 kg is 5 pounds and 8 ounces
Useful fact: 1 kg = 2.2 pounds, 1 pound = 16 ounces.
Be sure to use integer (int) and floating-point (double) variables and expressions
appropriately. The final output should have integer values for number of pounds and
ounces. The number of ounces should be between 0 and 15, and any fractions of an
ounce should be discarded (truncated) from the final value. However, be careful to
retain any fractional parts of intermediate results if they are needed to calculate
correct values for the final answers.
/* put any #define macros here (for conversion factors or anything else appropriate)*/
#define LBS_PER_KG 2.2
#define OZ_PER_LB 16
#include <stdio.h>
void main(void) {
/* declare variables here */

double kg; /* weight in kilograms (input) */
int pounds, ounces; /* weight in pounds and ounces */
/* declare additional variables here if you need them */

double total_pounds;
/* read desired weight and store in kg */

printf( "Enter a weight in kg: " );
scanf ("%lf", &kg);
/* calculate number of pounds and ounces corresponding to kg kilograms */

total_pounds = kg * LBS_PER_KG;
pounds = (int)(total_pounds);
ounces = (int)((total_pounds-(double)pounds)*OZ_PER_LB);
/* print pounds and ounces */
printf("%f kg is %d pounds %d ounces\n", kg, pounds,
ounces);
}
