displaying results when manipulating numbers

How do I display results when manipulating numbers? Multiplying $integerOne to $floatOne and displaying the results

index.php 
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne=1+5;
$integerTwo=2-1;
//Float variable
$floatOne=1.5;
$integerOne=1*1.5;
?>

Disclaimer: I didn't follow the php course, so maybe the expected solution is different.

To show a value on php you use the function echo.

In your case you need to show the result of the operation $integerOne * $floatOne so this:

<?php
echo $integerOne * $floatOne
?>
