Explanation / Answer

costPerDay = totalMoneySpent *daysOnTrip should be costPerDay =totalDollarsSpent / daysOnTrip. The errors here arethey've misnamed totalDollarsSpent astotalMoneySpent, and they are multiplying by thenumber of days rather than dividing like they should.
They also need to change weeks = daysOnTrip /numberOfWeeks to weeks = daysOnTrip / 7.numberOfWeeks is meaningless.
We also have never calculated the cost per weeks, so we needto add a line here saying costPerWeek = totalMoneySpent /numberOfWeeks.
Finally, we need to change the last line to printcostPerDay, costPerWeek.
