Why each option

The Python code performs an arithmetic calculation and then embeds the result into an f-string for printing.

AThe answer is 100

The calculation `x * y / 2` is `5 * 10 / 2 = 25`, not 100.

BThe answer is 5

The calculation `x * y / 2` is `5 * 10 / 2 = 25`, not 5.

CThe answer is 25Correct

The expression `x * y / 2` evaluates to `5 * 10 / 2`, which is `50 / 2 = 25.0`. The f-string then formats this result as 'The answer is 25.0', which is typically represented as 'The answer is 25' in contexts where the decimal zero is omitted.

DThe answer is 70

The calculation `x * y / 2` is `5 * 10 / 2 = 25`, not 70.
