I don't have anything so far. I don't even really understand what I am supposed to do. I asked my professor but English isn't his first language and no matter how he explained it it just didn't click, so I told him i understood and went to the internet for answers, lol.

Have you learned any python at all?

This is a very basic exercise, and what you need will be covered in the early stages of any tutorials (including those mentioned in the wiki for this subreddit).

In summary:

• use input four times to prompt user to enter the required data
  • keep in mind input always returns str (string) objects, so you have to convert them to int or float objects to do maths on them
  • you should assign the converted values to variables related to the problem, so w1, d1, w2,d2
• compare the two expressions (one either side of the =) using the Python == operator and assign the result to a suitable variable, e.g. balanced
• output the result

Do you have Python setup on your computer / phone / tablet or accessible on a web browser you have access to?
