title: How do you multiply a number in a list thats ['40', '12', '55']?
body: <p>I'm trying to multiply the numbers in the list by 5 but it won't because it says "TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'"</p>
  
  <pre><code>my_list = ['1', '2', '3', '4', '5']
  my_new_list = [i * 5 for i in my_list]
  
  print(my_new_list)
  </code></pre>
