Why do I get this error someone explain please? Syntax Error - result = str(num1 / num2)

Question

When code is ran i get an Syntax Error highlighting "result". Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

elif user_input == "divide":
num1 = float(input("Enter a number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter another number: ")
result = str(num1 / num2)
print("The answer is: " + result)

Answer 1

it's highlighting result because you didn't close the previous line.. add ) to the end of num2

Answer 2

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

its first changing num1 & num 2 in string and then dividing . but string cant be devided . so it shows error

Answer 6

I thought that too Rohan, but it is turning the number after division into a string.. it's wierd, but it works
