Question

jorge is using python 3 as a calculator. jorge wants to find the product of 321 and 408. what should jorge type?
a. print 321 x 408
b. print (321 times 408)
c. print 321(4)(408)
d. print (321 * 408)

Explanation:

In Python, to multiply two numbers (321 and 408 here) and print the result, the correct syntax for multiplication is using the * operator. Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: Using x for multiplication is incorrect in Python; Python uses * for multiplication.
• Option B: The syntax (321 times 408) is not valid Python syntax for multiplication.
• Option C: Writing 321(408) would be interpreted as a function call (treating 321 as a function), which is not correct for multiplication.
• Option D: Using 321 408 with the operator (multiplication operator in Python) inside the print function is the correct way to calculate and print the product of 321 and 408.

Answer:

D. print(321 * 408)
