Create a New Float Variable named $floatOne with a value of 1.5.
After adding 5 to $integerOne..

Question

The questions are more confusing than the task we're asked to complete.
Who out there knows what they're asking for?   How can we figure out what we're doing wrong with no clues, as to where we're going wrong?  What's written after "Bummer" usually just confuses me more.
```index.php
<?php //Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne = $integerOne + 5;
$integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;
$floatOne = 1.5;
echo $integerOne;
 $integerOne * $floatOne;
?>
```

Hi there!  Let's take a look at part of the instructions.
... multiply $integerOne by $floatOne and display the results.
Your code echoes $integerOne.  Then you go on to multiply $integerOne and $floatOne.  But that's the part you're supposed to be echoing out.  Also, even though it does the multiplication, the result is never stored or displayed.
So if we combine your last two lines:
```php
echo $integerOne * $floatOne;
```
... it will echo out the result of that multiplication to the page per challenge instructions.
Hope this clarifies things! :sparkles:
