Is this an assignment for you? We aren't a service to do homework.

Can you show some code you have written to try solving the problem? We
can discuss what you have already tried.

Whoops, my apology! I failed to notice we are already in that forum :-)

I simply had to roar with laughter at the signature you used for the
above as it just seemed so apt, nothing personal :)

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.

Yes. Good sigmonster, have a cookie!

I don't pick the aphorisms, but I do get to see them before sending the
message. I found it totally apt also :-)

This looks like homework and we won't do your homework for you.
But we can offer hints. It will help if you show us any
code you have written or even tell us how you think it might
work.

Meantime, look into the integer division and modulo operators.
They can be combined via the divmod() function which returns
both the division result and remainder in a single operation
like this:

hundreds,dollars = divmod(1737,100)

and hundreds will equal 17 and dollars 37.

hopefully you can see how that can be applied to your problem.
If not come back and ask more.

We don't do your homework, but as this is a common task for students there
is a site that does enough handholding to get you started:

If you run into problems and have a little code to show you made an effort
yourself we will help you solve them.
