what is wrong in my code?

Question

def get_seconds(hours, minutes, seconds):

return 3600*hours + 60*minutes + seconds

amount_a = get_seconds(3600*2 + 60*30)

amount_b = get_seconds(60*45 + 15)

result = amount_a + amount_b

print(result)

Answer 1

You need to pass in the arguments to get_seconds() as hours, minutes, and seconds, then your code will work:

def get_seconds(hours, minutes, seconds):
    return 3600 * hours + 60 * minutes + seconds

amount_a = get_seconds(2, 30, 0) # 2:30:00
amount_b = get_seconds(0, 45, 15) # 0:45:15
result = amount_a + amount_b

print(result)
