Making a mathematics quiz in python

import random

def mathquiz():
    name = str(input("Whats your name?:"))
    a = random.randint(1,10)
    b = random.randint(1,10)
    c = (a * b)
    timesby = ("*")
    print('what is', + a, timesby, + b)
    ans = input("Enter your answer here")
    if ans == c:
        print("Thats correct")
    else:
        print ("Incorrect the answer is", + c)

I am trying to create a maths quiz using random numbers and just say the question is 10 * 10 if i enter 100 if will say i have the wrong answer. Everything else works fine just this bit is wrong.

ans and c are of different types. Since you read ans from the console, it is a string, and not a number, while c is calculated through multiplying 2 numbers, so it is a number. there are 2 ways to fix this, convert ans to an int with int(ans) instead of ans, or convert c to a string with str(c) instead of c.
