Certainly! Here is a revised version of the instructions with improved grammar and conciseness: Prompt the user for the total food bill amount. Calculate and display the new total, which includes a 6% tax and a user-selected tip of 15%, 18%, or 20%, using Python.

To calculate the new total of a food bill after adding a 6% tax and a user-selected tip of 15%, 18%, or 20% using Python, you can follow these steps:

1. Ask the user for their total food bill. 2. Calculate the tax by multiplying the total bill amount by 6% (0.06). 3. Ask the user which tip percentage they would like to add (15%, 18%, or 20%). 4. Calculate the tip by multiplying the total bill amount by the tip percentage (converted to decimal form). 5. Add the tax amount and tip amount to the original total food bill to get the new total.

Here's a sample Python code to demonstrate this:

```python

Step 1: Ask the user for the total food bill total_bill = float(input("Please enter your total food bill: "))

Step 2: Calculate 6% tax tax = total_bill * 0.06

Step 3: Ask the user for the tip percentage they would like to add tip_percentage = int(input("What tip percentage would you like to add? (15, 18, or 20): "))

Convert the tip percentage into decimal tip_percentage_decimal = tip_percentage / 100

Step 4: Calculate the tip tip = total_bill * tip_percentage_decimal

Step 5: Calculate the new total after adding tax and tip new_total = total_bill + tax + tip

Output the new total print(f"Your new total with tax and a {tip_percentage}% tip is: ${new_total:.2f}") ```

When the user runs this code, they will be prompted to input the total food bill and their desired tip percentage. The code will then output the new total with the tax and tip included.

 To achieve the goal of prompting the user for the total food bill amount and calculating a new total that includes a 6% tax and a user-selected tip (either 15%, 18%, or 20%), you can follow these steps in Python:

```python

Step 1: Prompt the user for the total bill amount total_bill = float(input("Please enter the total food bill amount: "))

Step 2: Add a 6% tax to the total bill tax_rate = 0.06 tax_amount = total_bill * tax_rate total_with_tax = total_bill + tax_amount

Step 3: Prompt the user to select a tip rate print("Please select a tip rate:") print("1. 15%\n2. 18%\n3. 20%") tip_selection = input("Enter your selection (1, 2, or 3): ")

Step 4: Define the possible tip rates tip_rates = { '1': 0.15, '2': 0.18, '3': 0.20 }

Step 5: Calculate the tip amount based on user selection and add it to the total if tip_selection in tip_rates: tip_rate = tip_rates[tip_selection] tip_amount = total_with_tax * tip_rate total_with_tip = total_with_tax + tip_amount else: print("Invalid selection. Assuming a default tip of 15%.") tip_rate = tip_rates['1'] tip_amount = total_with_tax * tip_rate total_with_tip = total_with_tax + tip_amount

Step 6: Display the new total with tax and tip print(f"New total after including tax and tip: ${total_with_tip:.2f}") ```
