//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$floatOne = 1.5;
$integerOne= $integerOne + 5;
echo ($integerOne);//why is this needed, question have not asked so.
$integerTwo=$integerTwo - 1;
echo ($integerTwo);//why is this needed, not necessary.
$mult=$integerOne*$floatOne;//why is it stored in the variable, can you try echo along with multiply
echo ($mult);//then take off this line

$integerOne = 1; $integerTwo = 2; $floatOne = 1.5;
$integerOne= $integerOne + 5; echo ($integerOne);//I already told you take this echo
$integerTwo=$integerTwo - 1; echo ($integerTwo);//this echo too, I already told take it from here
echo $integerOne*$floatOne; ?>

Multiplication is supposed to be a 9

5,536 Pointsi got stuck on this also and the only thing that seemed to work is :
echo $integerOne*$floatOne;
I dont think the question is very well worded though : "Multiply $integerOne by $floatOne and display the results."
which suggests you perform the operation of multiplying $integerOne by $floatOne and then you display the results rather than displaying the results of $integerOne multiplied by $floatOne - a subtle difference, but confusing when it only accepts a single way of doing things.

672 PointsChallenge Tast 3 of 3 Multiply $integerOne by $floatOne and display the results.
Bummer! Are you sure you multiplied $integerOne by $floatOne? This should be the same as 6*1.5 which equals 9.
Thats what it says... If i take the 2nd and 3rd paragraph off, it shows an error that task 2 have an error
