: i. Declare firstName and lastname string variables that hold a first and last name.

ii. Declare a sharesOfStock int variable that holds a value of 750

iii. Declare a pricePerShare double variable that holds a value of 35.00

Answer 1

public class Stock {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
       String firstName = "Mary";
       String lastName = "Jones";
       int sharesOfStock = 750;
       double pricePerShare = 35;
       double commissionRate = 0.02;
       //finding the amount paid only to the stock
       double totolStock = (sharesOfStock * pricePerShare);
       //finding the commission
       double commission = totolStock * commissionRate;
       // displaying all the details
       System.out.println("The Amount Paid for Stock : " + totolStock);
       System.out.println("The Amount of Commisio : " + commission);
       System.out.println("Total Amount : " + (totolStock + commission));
   }
