PHP class for mathematical calculations

PHP OOP: Exercise-14 with Solution

Write a class called 'Math' with static methods like 'add()', 'subtract()', and 'multiply()'. Use these methods to perform mathematical calculations.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code :

<?php
class Math {
    public static function add($num1, $num2) {
        return $num1 + $num2;
    }

    public static function subtract($num1, $num2) {
        return $num1 - $num2;
    }

    public static function multiply($num1, $num2) {
        return $num1 * $num2;
    }
}

$result1 = Math::add(4, 3);
$result2 = Math::subtract(14, 4);
$result3 = Math::multiply(8, 2);

echo "Addition: " . $result1 . "</br>";
echo "Subtraction: " . $result2 . "</br>";
echo "Multiplication: " . $result3 . "</br>";
?>

Sample Output:

Addition: 7
Subtraction: 10
Multiplication: 16

Explanation:

In the above exercise -

• The "Math" class has three static methods: add(), subtract(), and multiply(), which perform addition, subtraction, and multiplication respectively.
• Each method takes two parameters $num1 and $num2, performs the corresponding mathematical operation, and returns the result.
