COP 3223 Homework 3 Solved

You and your roommates go through a lot of orange juice.
Since you're living on a college budget, you've decided that it's critical for you to take advantage of the "Buy One Get One" (BOGO) free offers at the nearby grocery store.

Program Setup:
Your program should ask the user to enter the price of one carton of juice as well as the number of cartons being purchased.
Note that since juice is an ordinary grocery item, no sales tax is charged on it.

Then, determine the final cost of buying orange juice under the BOGO offer.
While it is possible to make a solution that does not use If Statements, the purpose of the assignment is to practice with conditions.
Make sure you take this opportunity to get the practice you need to master the programming concepts.

You'll need to account for two different cases: buying an even number of OJ cartons and buying an odd number of OJ cartons.
How can you determine if a number is even or odd?
A number that is evenly divisible by 2 is even.
An odd number has a remainder of 1 when divided by 2.
Which arithmetic operator gives you the remainder?

Sample Run:
Here are two examples of what your program should look like when its finished.
