Adding two calls to Multiply a value from return

I've tried just about every combination but can't seem to get my Main function to print results. Could use some help. TY

Program.cs 
using System;

class Program
{

    static double Multiply(double firstParam, double secondParam)
    {
        return (firstParam * secondParam);
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      Multiply(2.5, 2) + (6, 7);

    }

}

The original version of Mulitply called Console.WriteLine to output the results. You will need to use that in Main now.

Also, you still need to make two calls to Multiply,. but now you will add them together and output the result.

Here is what I used to get the answer. Not sure if it was the right way to answer but it worked.

using System;

class Program {

static double Multiply(double firstParam, double secondParam)
{
    return firstParam * secondParam;
}

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Console.WriteLine(Multiply(2.5, 2) + Multiply(6, 7));

}

}
