I'm getting two answer from my function, I only want one. How do I fix this?

    function payment = fare(miles,age)
        tot1 =0;
        tot2=0;
        tot3=0;
        if miles <= 1
            tot1 = 200;
            payment = tot1;
        elseif miles <=10
            tot1= 200;
            tot2 = (miles-1)*0.25*100
            payment = tot1+tot2;
        elseif miles>10
            tot1 = 200
            tot2 = (10-1)*0.25*100
            tot3 = (miles-10)*0.10*100
            payment = tot1+tot2+tot3;
        end
        payment = (tot1+tot2+tot3)/100;
        if age <=18 || age>=65
            payment = (tot1+tot2+tot3)*0.8/100;
        else
            payment=(tot1+tot2+tot3)/100;
        end

    end

This is the code that produces the two variables, while I only want one: payment.

How do I get it?

Your code omly returns one variable, payment, but it will print several other variables to the command window because you did not put semi-colons at the end of the lines:

        elseif miles <=10
            tot1= 200;
            tot2 = (miles-1)*0.25*100  % <- add semicolon
            payment = tot1+tot2;
        elseif miles>10
            tot1 = 200                 % <- add semicolon
            tot2 = (10-1)*0.25*100     % <- add semicolon
            tot3 = (miles-10)*0.10*100 % <- add semicolon
