How do I Create a function that converts a float to a string and double it.

def double_float(this_float): # TO DO BELOW: Let the variable doubled = this_float multiplied by 2 # Prints out what this_float doubled is. print(str(doubled) + ' is ' + str(this_float) + ' doubled.') # insert the float you want doubled double_float(319.16)
