I cant figure out how to multiply the integer and the float and then displaying the answer using echo. I have tried everything and its still not working. Thank You!
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne = $integerOne + 5;
var_dump( $integerOne);
$integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;
var_dump( $integerTwo);
$floatOne = 1.5;
$a = $integerOne * $floatOne;
echo $a;
?>

Is it giving you an error message saying "Make sure you use "echo" instead of "var_dump""? Try removing your var_dump statements.
It's also possible to perform the calculation directly in the echo statement rather than declaring a new variable. e.g. echo $integerOne * $floatOne; (saves having to declare a new variable).
