How to add two variables??

Question

var a = 2
var b = 3
document.write(a+b)

Output is 23,
And i want it to be 5

Answer 1

Basic JavaScript Addition:-

var x = 1;
var y = 2;
var result = x + y;

The result is "3".Add numbers in JavaScript by placing a plus sign between them.

Answer 2

I believe you put the 2 and 3 in quotation marks (“2” and “3”) which will do something called concatenation so that it returns 23. If you want the mathematical addition, do not put them in quotation marks

Answer 3

For js : use
console.log(a+b);

but that also outputs 5. check again...

Answer 4

How are you getting 23? The code you have shown will output 5.
