3. Let's start with two variables: wheels_on_bike = 2 and wheels_on_car = 4. Create a variable called total_wheels that contains the sum of the two previous variables.

4. Create 3 variables mysterious_question, simulation and the_answer_to_everything. the_answer_to_everything should be equal to mysterious_question + simulation. Give mysterious_question and simulation 2 numerical values that would make the_answer_to_everything equal to 42. Print the_answer_to_everything to confirm.
