    if(c==1)
    {
            price = 35;
            
                   
            total(price);
                  
                   
    }
    if(c==2)
    {
            price = 10;
   
            total(price);

    if(c==3)
    {
            price = 15;
  
            total(price);
                   
                  
    }
    if(c>3)
    printf("Error!");               
}  


int total(int price2)
{
    int prod,qnt,t;
    
    printf("\nQuantity: ");
    scanf("%d",&qnt);
    
    prod = qnt*price2;
    printf("\nBill is: %d",prod);
    
    t=prod;
    return t;
}

What you would need to do is have Choices() return the value from Total(). Then set bill to the return value of Choices(). Like so,

int main()
{
    int bill = 0;

    int choice;
    
    header();
    printf("What do you want to buy: ");
    scanf("%d",&choice);
    
    bill = choices(choice);
    
    //bill = total(cash);
    
    printf("\nTendered amount: ");
    scanf("%d",&cash);
    
    printf("\nYour change: %d",cash-bill);
    
    getchar(); 
    getchar();
}

int choices(int c)
{
    int price;
    if(c==1)
    {
            price = 35;
            return total(price);
    }
    if(c==2)
    {
            price = 10;
            return total(price);
    }
    if(c==3)
    {
            price = 15;
            return total(price);
    }
    if(c>3)
    printf("Error!");               
    return 0;
}

int total(int price2)
{
    int prod,qnt,t;
    
    printf("\nQuantity: ");
    scanf("%d",&qnt);
    
    prod = qnt*price2;
    printf("\nBill is: %d",prod);
    
    return prod;
    //t=prod;
    //return t;
}

It worked...Thank you so much for your help...

Happy to help.

You'll get your head around soon enough. You'll be returning values all over the place if you keep programming :)

Yea i've tried passing values from my other programs...
But i did not do something like this... That's what really confuse me when i try to pass a value from a function to main...
