Does calculate(x) Output 140 For x = (1, 45, 7, 84, 3)

“x = (1, 45, 7, 84, 3) def calculate(x): answer = sum(x) return answer print(calculate(x))”
Outputs 140
Confidence: High Checked on April 9, 2026

Summary

The tuple `(1, 45, 7, 84, 3)` contains five numeric values. The `calculate` function applies Python’s built‑in `sum` to this tuple, producing the total 140, which is then printed.

  • Math and Python: loops and summation – Clayton Cafiero

    We begin with a tuple of numeric values, t. Since the elements of t are all numeric, we can calculate their sum. First, we create a variable to hold the result of the sum. We call this, sum_.1 Then, we iterate over all the elements in t, and at each iteration of the loop, we add the value of ...

  • Python - Sum of tuple elements - GeeksforGeeks

    The summation2 function takes a tuple as input and calculates the sum of its elements. It checks that the tuple is not empty or it has any other datatype then it raises an error. Then we create an iterable to iterate in the tuple.

  • Python | Summation of list as tuple attribute - GeeksforGeeks

    If i is less than the length of test_list, it calculates the sum of the second element of the tuple and creates a new tuple with the same key and the sum as the value. It then concatenates this tuple with the result of the recursive call with i incremented by 1. The final result is returned as a list of tuples.
