x*=3 is the same as x = x*3 .. so we have that x=a, thus x*=3 will result in a*3

if x=a x*=3 if it will happen that x is same like a then x will be three times larger, or x=a x*=3 x has value of a and then x is multiplied by 3 (but "a" stays the same)

first you see that "x" has the value of "a" then x*=3 it's like saying x=x*3 so then the answer it's like saying a=a×3

a variable can't store other variable like x=a here both are variables. if we have x='a' then x=x*3 gives value in x as 'aaa'.

x = a is different from x = "a". If a is defined first, x will take a's value and then 3 times that value. Otherwise you will get an error message. However, if you meant to say x = "a", then most definitely you will get aaa as the new value for x.

x *= 3 is the same as x = x * 3. so if a = 3 x would be 9.

here, if the condition x=a is satisfied, then x will be replaced by x=x*3.

x*=3 is the same as x=x*3. So if x="a", it'll be "a"*3 and the result will be aaa
