Simple Math Operations in Python

>>> ## Concept Python can perform math calculations just like a simple calculator. It allows you to add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers using operators. Here's a quick look at how you can perform these basic operations: ### Addition (+) This operator adds two numbers together: ```python result = 10 + 5 print(result) # This will output: 15 ``` ### Subtraction (-) This operator subtracts one number from another: ```python result = 20 - 7 print(result) # This will output: 13 ``` ### Multiplication (*) Use the asterisk to multiply two numbers: ```python result = 6 * 4 print(result) # This will output: 24 ``` ### Division (/) Use the slash to divide one number by another: ```python result = 15 / 3 print(result) # This will output: 5.0 ``` You can also combine different operations, but remember the order of operations: multiplication and division come before addition and subtraction, unless you use parentheses to change the order. ## Practice **Your task:** Calculate **25 + 17** and print the result. - **Steps to follow:** 1. You need to add the numbers 25 and 17. 2. You can either store the result in a variable and then print it, or you can print the result directly without using a variable. 3. Ensure your output is exactly **42**! **Example ways to write the solution:** - **Directly print the result:** ```python print(25 + 17) ``` - **Use a variable to store the result, then print it:** ```python result = 25 + 17 print(result) ``` Try it out! Make sure the output shows 42 when you run the code.
