Welcome to the forum @Kams !

You are asked to print the value of the running_total variable, not the string ‘running_total’.

You can either print an f-string or pass in two arguments (a string and a variable).

Happy coding!

This is my code:

running_total = 0

num_of_friends = 4

appetizers = 37.89

main_courses = 57.34

desserts = 39.39

drinks = 64.21

running_total += appetizers + main_courses + desserts + drinks

print(f’Total bill so far: {str(running_total)}')

I am getting error: “You should print the string Total bill so far: followed by a space and the value of running_total.”

Can anyone help?
