Although you're correct, what they're looking for you to do is carry out the operations separately. The compiler that checks your work first checks if you declare $integerOne to equal 1 before you operate on it. As well as the same check for $integerTwo.

<?php

// Task 1
$integerOne = 1;
$integerTwo = 2;
$floatOne = 1.5;

// Task 2
$integerOne += 5;
$integerTwo -= 1;


// Task 3
echo $integerOne * $floatOne;

?>
