Sample Midterm Exam Questions with Solutions

Q.2. (15 points) Design an algorithm OR draw a flowchart for a computer program that finds the
average of 3 input numbers entered by the user and prints “pass”, if average is greater than or
equal to 50, otherwise prints “fail”. At the end it must print computed average as well.

1. BEGIN
2. PRINT “Enter three numbers:”
3. READ num1, num2, num3
4. average = (num1+num2+num3)/3
5. IF average >= 50
PRINT “pass”
ELSE
PRINT “fail”
ENDIF
6. PRINT “average:”, average
7. END

Q.6. (17 points) The formula for the volume of a sphere is 𝑉 = 3 𝜋 𝑎2 𝑏 where a and b are the

half-lengths of the major and minor axes respectively. The following C program reads values for a
and b and then calculates and displays the volume. Complete the missing parts in the program.
Use appropriate variable declarations in the program (do not use any additional variables) and
write only 1 statement on each blank line.

#include <stdio.h>

/*declare the constant value of 𝜋 as 3.141593

_____#define PI 3.141593____________________________________________

int main()
{
/* declare variables */

____float a, b, V;____________________________________________________

/*read the values of a and b from the keyboard*/

____scanf(“%f%f”, &a, &b);___________________________________________

/*compute the volume of the sphere */

____V=4.0/3*PI*a*a*b;-________________________________________________

/*display the result onto the screen*/

_____printf(“Volume = %f”, V); ________________________________________


return 0;
