WriteLine does not work the same way as string.Concat. You have to use a proper format string with placeholders for object parameters.

Solution 2

You need to use a proper format specifier for the overload of Console.WriteLine() you are trying to use:

C#

Console.WriteLine("The Value of added numbers is: {0}", x + y);

You can also use a composite format string, if your version of c# is recent enough:

C#

Console.WriteLine($"The Value of added numbers is: {x + y}");
