    WARNING: This is asking for an injection attack. Assuming the `0.45*100` is coming from the user, I would validate it's in the form you expect, extract all the parameters, and then multiply explicitly rather than calling eval. – charles-allen Sep 18 '17 at 06:18

Try eval() which return your operation

$test = "0.45*100";
$value=eval("return ($test);");
echo $value;

Please check below code using eval()

Working Demo: https://eval.in/863366

$expression = '0.45*100';
eval( '$result = (' . $expression . ');' );
echo $result;
