I tried to just use what's been learnt so far and scaled it down to make it as simple as possible but feel like I made it more complicated in terms of how I am calling the function. If you guys have any tips on how I can make it simpler; Please feel free to let me know :)
Will now watch the video and see Craig's approach.
def split_check(total_bill, total_people):
amount_due_each = total_bill / total_people
return amount_due_each
print("Result: £{0:.2f}".format(split_check(int(input("What is the total amount?\n£")), int(input("How many people attended?\n")))))
Kind regards

def split_check(total_bill, total_people):
return total_bill / total_people
