You're trying to use cout and cin without having included the right header, but apart from that, you just need to organise your code better so you can see which if and else statements match up with each other.

#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
using std::cin;
using std::cout;

int main()
{
  char fare;
  char choice='Y';
  int hrIn, minIn, hrOut, minOut; 
  int hours; 
  int minutes;
  int total_minutes; 
  double cost;
  float charge;
  float additionalTime;
  
  while(choice=='Y'||choice=='y')
  { 
    cout << "\nThis program will calculate a single, couple, or group "
    << "\nfare amount which is then owed by the customer for the trip.\n"
    << "\nTo calculate a single fare amount, input S (or s)"
    << "\nTo calculate a couple fare amount, input C (or c)"
    << "\nTo calculate a group fare amount, input G (or g)"
    << " \n\nInput S, C, or G: ";
    cin >> fare; 
    //------------------------------------… 
    if(fare=='C'||fare=='c')
    {
    
       cout << "\nWhat hour did the couple depart? ";

Its working now.. but you have to make your understanding clear about a "while" loop and "if" statement
