    Option A: print ("The total is %0.5f" % total)

    Explanation:

    To ensure the value is rounded to a precision of 5 digits, we have to create a formatted string which is %0.5f. The. 5 denotes five decimal places and f refers to float data type.

    Next, we use the % operator again and followed with the variable total. The % is used as a string modulo operator that will interpolate the value held by the the variable total in the formatted string that we create previously. The interpolated value will be rounded to 5 decimal places. For example, if

    total = 256.786789

    The output will be 256.78679
