How to do Math in PHP

In addition to Variables in PHP today we are going to talk about Math
Yes, you can do calculations in PHP similar to what you do on your calculator
Open your code editor and open a new file.
Open an HTML, HEAD, and PHP Tags
Between the PHP tags,
You can do additions, subtractions, division, and multiplications
For every function, use echo and then simply add, multiply or subtract.
Syntax for functions – (+ for addition), (- for subtraction), (* for multiplication) and (/ for division)
We can also do calculations with multiple functions such as “echo 45 + 34 * 45 / 421 – 45;”
I would like to also share with you on the order of operations. Please remember that multiplication and division go before addition and subtraction.
For example – echo 5 + 5 * 10 will show as 55 and not 100 unless you place 5+5 in prentices like (5 + 5) * 10
Also – You can save numbers as variables and use them for calculations. For example – $number1 = 12; and $number2 = 24;. Echo $number1 + $number2;
