Python Program to Multiply Two Numbers

This python program multiplies twoo numbers given by user and display output in standard output unit.

In this example, we first read two number from user using built-in function input(). Since function input() returns string value, we need to convert them to number type. And then given numbers are multiplied simply by * operator to get desired result.

Python Source Code: Multiply Two Numbers

# Python program to find
# multiply two numbers

# Reading two numbers
number1 = input('Enter first number: ')
number2 = input('Enter second number: ')

# Converting to float
# Conversion is required because
# input() function return string
number1 = float(number1)
number2 = float(number2)

# Multiplication
result = number1 * number2

# Displaying result
print('%0.2f * %0.2f = %0.2f' % (number1, number2, result))

Output

Enter first number: 12.23
Enter second number: 22.3
12.23 * 22.30 = 272.73
