The answer is A and F, if you choose B or C you get an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 11, in <module> biker = get_name() TypeError: get_name() missing 1 required positional argument: 'biker' Therefore A and F are the correct option.

It is A & F.. I tested out the code.. def get_name(): name = input("What is your name? ") return name def calc_calories(miles,calories_per_mile): calories = miles * calories_per_mile return calories distance = int(input("How many miles did you bike this week? ")) burn_rate = 50 biker = get_name() calories_burned = calc_calories(distance, burn_rate) print(biker, ", you burned about" ,calories_burned, "calories.")

Be careful between E/F--We need to use the variables defined in 1st line of function definition inside for further computation, what variable name is passed to the function at the time of function call is not important
