Mix python output and markdown in jupyter

I want to be able to show the result of a python computation and have some explanation of it in Markdown. This seems like a fairly simple operation, but I can't figure out how to do it. Is there any way to do this without installing any extensions to Jupyter?

Would it suffice if you yourself didn't have to personally handle the installations to Jupyter?

I know OP says specifically, without installing an extension, but what is described is addressed with the Python-Markdown extension, see here. And this question comes up at the top of the list when one Googles "jupyter mix markdown and python print cell".

You can easily use Python-Markdown in an active notebook launched via the MyBinder system from here; the repo for that is here if you want to fork it and further adapt it by adding your own notebooks.

In the toolbar (see image here http://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_images/jupyter-notebook-default.png), you can set the cell as Markdown in the drop down menu for explanatory text.
