#include #include #include using namespace std; int main() { string product ; float a= 3.0, b= 5.0, c = 7.1, d=8.3, e=2.2, f=3.2 , g= 6.1; int h=5 ; cout << " " << a << endl; cout <<"*" << b << endl; cout << "-------------" << endl; product = 3.0*5.0 ; cout << product << endl; system ("pause") ; }

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
float product ;//your type must b type float
float a= 3.0, b= 5.0, c = 7.1, d=8.3, e=2.2, f=3.2 , g= 6.1;
int h=5 ;//wat is the use of c,d,e,f,g,h

cout << " " << a <<endl;
cout<< "* "<<b<<endl;


cout << "-------------" << endl;


product = 3.0*5.0 ;
cout << product << endl;





system ("pause") ;
}
