Question

Create a Python program that calculates the monthly fuel cost for an automobile, given the average number of miles driven, the price per gallon and the estimated MPG for the vehicle.

For 10 points extra credit, use format specifiers for the average gallons per month such that only one digit appears to the right of the decimal point (e.g. 39.2) and for the cost of fuel such that only two digits appear to the right of the decimal point (e.g. $89.80). Format specifiers are explained in the text in Chapter 1 in the Formatting Strings section and the code for every example in the text can be downloaded from the link provided in the Introduction.

Your program should ask the user for the following:

the car's estimated Miles Per Gallon (MPG) with one digit to the right of the decimal point (e.g. 25.5)
the price per gallon, with decimal point
the average miles traveled each month as a whole number
Your program should calculate and display the number of gallons consumed each month based on the miles traveled and MPG and the monthly cost of fuel.
Your program should include header comments at the top of the file that specify your name, the date, the name of the assignment and the course identifier.
