Question

For every trip, a Grab driver will get 80% of the amount that was charged for the 
passenger and the balance will be given to the Grab company. Program B calculates 
and display the amount that the driver gets for every trip. This program also will 
calculate accumulated amount that the driver received for one day. However, there are 
syntax and logic errors in this program that need to be corrected. Analyze Program B
to answer questions a, b, c, and d.

 

#include <iostream.h>
int main()

 // Declaration Section
 float passenger_pay =0.0, pay_driver=0.0, total_pay=0.0;
 
 do 
 {
 cout<<"\nPlease enter payment for this trip RM";
 cin>>passenger_pay; // amount paid by the passenger
 // calculation section
 pay_driver = passenger_pay*0.7;
 total_pay+=pay_driver;
 cout<<"Please enter trip code, Enter N to end the execution ";
 cin>>trip_code;
 }while (trip_code != 'N');
 cout<<"\n Driver Amount for trip\t"<<trip_code<<" is RM : " <<pay_driver<<endl;
 cout <<"\n\nTotal amount earned by driver "<<total_pay<<endl;
 return 0;
}
Program B
