If you're looking to have the output more visually appealing, do this instead to get your desired effect. x = float(input("Enter your hours: ")) print(str(x)) y = float(input('Enter your hourly rate: ')) print(str(y)) pay = str(x*y) print('Pay: ' + pay) https://code.sololearn.com/cA182a24A19A ::INPUT:: 35 2.75 ::OUTPUT:: Enter your hours: 35.0 Enter your hourly rate: 2.75 Pay: 96.25

print('Enter your hours:') x = float(input()) print('Enter your hourly rate:') y = float(input()) pay = str(x*y) print('Pay: ' + pay) INPUT: 40 10 OUTPUT: 400.0 Code Playground: https://code.sololearn.com/cA182a24A19A input() is how you get the prompt, and you assign it to a variable to store the value that's inputted. You wrap it in float() to ensure the value is stored as an int that we can use to do calculations, and then I used str() to ensure it's a text string that we can easily print out to display the result. Hope that helps. Good luck in your learning.

In the CodePlayground, you have to input all inputs into the same box when you run it. So for example you would put: 35 2.75 ^Put that into the input box on separate lines as above. Then when it finishes execution it'll output 96.25 as you expect. This is a security feature since you're executing code through the servers instead of locally.
