Create a New Float Variable named $floatOne with a value of 1.5. Without changing the value of $integerOne or $floatOne, multiply $integerOne by $floatOne and display the results.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne = $integerOne + 5;
$integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;
$floatOne = 1.5;
var_dump ($integerOne * $floatOne) ;
?>

It looks like you've got the right code, you just need to echo the results to display it to the screen rather than using a var_dump
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$integerOne = $integerOne + 5;
$integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;
$floatOne = 1.5;
echo $integerOne * $floatOne;
?>
var dump will display certain properties of variables rather than the output itself. :-)
