Anything wrong with my answer? I have no idea.

Answer 1

Ferris ,

▪︎the task description says that the result has to be a float not an int, use / instead of //.
▪︎also print() has to be spelled in lowercase letters.

happy coding!

Answer 2

Lothar Thank you sooo much. I nailed it finally. 😀😀😀😀😀😀

I saw one comment before:

For those who are surprised that the correct answer is not "6". It's because in Python Operators;

"/"(single bar) returns a float type number

whereas;

"//"(double bars) returns integer type number

And as there is "/" in the equation, it returned the float type to value 6, making it become a float type number with a decimal place.

Right answer: 6.0 (float type)
