Need a bit of help on JAVA

[Xylitol]

public double south(double num3, double num4)
{
num3 += 24;
num4 *= 2;
System.out.println("num3 / num4 = " + (num3/num4));
return (10 * (num3 + num4));
}

Thats what it says
I have to find the final output
I know that num3 = num3 + 24 and num4 = num4 * 2

num3/num4 = num3/num4 ????
What good does that do me?

Or am I doing this wrong?
If I am can someone lead me in the right directions

Thanks

Are you referring to:

System.out.println("num3 / num4 = " + (num3/num4));

???

If so, that is simply printing the result of num3 divided by num4 with the text "num3 / num4" before it.

Yea but as my answer, am I just supposed to leave my answer as numx
x = any #?

More importantly, you need a bit of help with asking questions that make sense.

Wrong forum

But by itself, it outputs nothing. What does "main" say?

where is the code that sends data to this method?

uhhh... not sure if I know what exactly you're asking but from the return statement it looks like you're returning something like:

10(num3 + 24 + 2(num4)) or num3 + 2(num4) + 24 (multiplying out and simplifying)

The System.out.println("num3 / num4 = " + (num3/num4)); has no bearing on the return value since it's not reassigned.
