[Tutor] Bad Operand Type

Daniel,

I think you need to convert the input (string) to a float.

>milesTraveled = raw_input("How many miles did you travel? ")
>gallonsUsed = raw_input("How many gallons of gas did you use? ")
>pricePerGallon = raw_input("How much did one gallon of gas cost? ")

float(milesTraveled) = raw_input("How many miles did you travel? ")
float(gallonsUsed) = raw_input("How many gallons of gas did you use? ")
float(pricePerGallon) = raw_input("How much did one gallon of gas cost? ")

That should solve your problem.

Regards,
Stephan
