							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2018-10-12 15:37:13 -04:00
										 |  |  |     var product = 8 * 10; | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |      | 
					
						
							| 
									
										
										
										
											2019-03-04 18:40:07 -06:00
										 |  |  | The variable `product` would have a value of `80` after this declaration. |
