A queston is Create a variable named "onehundred" and assign the correct numeric value 100 to it using only variables a, b, and c and the common numeric operators?
I cant make the number 100 after created the variable of ten. I do not want to repeat making other the variables because its already exist the ten variable I was thought using the ten * ten. Why does not work that ways?
var three = a + b;
var ten = b + b * c;
var nineteen = c * c + b + a;
var onehundred = ten * ten;
and I tried
var onehundred = (ten) * (ten);

var ten = b + b * c;
var onehundred = (b + b * c) * (b + b * c);
I know what you're saying about already having defined 'ten', but I think the point of the exercise is getting to know the operators. :)
