How can the PHP code be modified to correctly implement a pagination feature based on the $page variable?

The issue can be solved by modifying the SQL query to retrieve a specific number of results based on the $page variable, which represents the current page number. By using the LIMIT clause in the SQL query, we can control the number of results displayed per page. Additionally, we need to calculate the offset based on the current page number to correctly fetch the results for that page. 

// Assuming $page is set to the current page number
$results_per_page = 10; // Number of results to display per page

// Calculate the offset for the SQL query
$offset = ($page - 1) * $results_per_page;

// Modify the SQL query to include the LIMIT clause with the calculated offset and results per page
$sql = "SELECT * FROM your_table LIMIT $offset, $results_per_page";

// Execute the modified SQL query to retrieve the paginated results
// Display the results accordingly
