To adapt the given code to multiply the two numbers, you can follow these steps:
- Add a variable to calculate the multiplication result.
- Include this variable in the return statement.
- Ensure the function call unpacks the correct number of return values.
Here’s how the correct option would look based on the provided options:
Correct Response:
- Add a third variable on line 8 and add multiply on line 5.
Here’s the adapted code:
1 def calculate(a, b):
2 add = a + b
3 subtract = a - b
4 multiply = a * b # Add multiplication calculation
5 return add, subtract, multiply # Now returning three values
6
7 # get result in tuple format
8 c, d, e = calculate(40, 10) # Adjusted to unpack three values
9 print(str(c) + " " + str(d) + " " + str(e)) # Added print for multiplication result
With this adjusted code, you will now correctly compute and print the addition, subtraction, and multiplication of the two numbers.
