To practice writing basic pseudocode for the solution of a problem

Assignment:

First solve each of the two problems shown below. (25 points each, so make sure you show your work, no matter how simple you think it is)

Then write an algorithm for each of these two problems in pseudocode.(25 points each)

Tips about problem # 1 :

Mr. Jones must always have no money left at the end.
The user should specify the number of casinos.
The user should specify the admission fee to enter the casino. You can assume it will be the same for every casino.

 3 Homeworks (4% each) = 12%
 4 Projects  (7% each) = 28%
 3 Exams    (20% each) = 60%

 Total = 100%

If you have the following homework, project and exam grades at the end of the semester, calculate your final grade for the course:

     Homework 1 =  75/100  Project 1 =  70/100    Exam 1 = 85/100
     Homework 2 =  90/100  Project 2 =  90/100    Exam 2 = 90/100
     Homework 3 = 100/100  Project 3 =  98/100    Exam 3 = 81/100
                           Project 4 = 100/100

You should allow the user to enter in each of the homework, project and exam grades.
