Math expressions: Familiar operators

You can assign the result of a math expression to the variable.


              1
            
lucky_number = 3 + 4

This displays 7 on the screen.

Here is a statement that subtracts 45 from 30, assigning the result, -15, to the variable.


              1
            
loss = 30 - 45

This one assigns the product of 5 times 4 — the result is 20 — to the variable.


              1
            
dozens = 5 * 4

This one assigns 36 divided by 9 — the result is 4 — to the variable.


              1
            
number = 36 / 9

Task

Divide the variable total by 3 and assign the result to the variable result. Display these 2 variables(total, result) on the screen.
