# Program to convert kilometers to miles
# Number of Kilometers = 10 , you can fetch this from the user too (is needed)
kilometers = 10
# conversion factor
KmToMileConversionFactor = 0.621371
# calculate the miles
miles = kilometers * KmToMileConversionFactor
print('%0.2f kilometers is equal to %0.2f miles' %(kilometers,miles))Output
10.00 kilometers is equal to 6.21 miles
In the above program, we are converting 10 kilometers to miles. This is stored in the variable kilometers.
The input from the kilometers variable is multiplied by the conversion factor and the result is stored in the variable miles and display in the UI.
