Mathematical Operations

You can perform arithmetic operations in Python on numeric values. Two The category of data a value belongs to. data types that exist in Python are int and float.

  • int: integer numbers, for example, 7.
  • float: numbers with a decimal point, for example, 7.5.

And we can use Python’s arithmetic operators to perform common mathematical operations on ints and floats as shown in the table below.

Operation Operator Example Output
Addition + 7 + 5 12
Subtraction - 13.5 - 4 9.5
Division / 72 / 9 8.0
Floor Division // 45 // 9 5
Multiplication * 61 * 4 244
Exponentiation ** 3 ** 3 27
Modulus % 15 % 13 2

7 multiplied by 5

To calculate 7 multiplied by 5, enter the below code into a code editor:

7 * 5

Output

35
