Cannot Understand the instructions

I am failing to see where I am making the mistake on generating random numbers

RandomTest.java 
Random randomGenerator = new Random ();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(10);
int AsString = randomNumber + "";

From what the code does you should be declaring AsString as a String, not an int, since string "mushing" is used to turn a number into a string.
