Hello. I have a problem with multiply variable PHP, I'm stuck on this step "Challenge Task 3 of 3"

<?php

//Place your code below this comment $integerOne = 1; $integerTwo = 2;

$integerOne = $integerOne + 5; $integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;

$floatOne = 1.5;

var_dump( $integerOne * $floatOne ); ?>

what's wrong?

index.php 
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;


$integerOne = $integerOne + 5;
$integerTwo = $integerTwo - 1;

$floatOne = 1.5;

var_dump(  $integerOne * $floatOne );
?>

You are using var_dump which displays info about the variables

What you actually need to do is just display the variable result itself so replace var_dump with

Echo ( $integerOne * $floatOne );

Hej Anthony, firstly thanks for your answer:)

I solved this by using "echo", that was a catch:)

tnx man!
