Having the formulas given, substitute the given data into the formulas and calculate; then round the number.

I wish you have fun doing your job.

Also please keep in your mind that doing the students work like these simple calculations IS NOT the tutor's job or duty.

Also, please do not instruct me (and even do not try) how to teach:
I know it in 60 times better than you.
