The name of the function being called is missing, and there are some syntax issues with the arguments:

console.log( (2, 5)(sqm));            // original code
console.log( getArea(2, 5, "sqm") );  // corrected

I've improved slightly console.log ((2 * 5), ("sqm"));

which returns:- 10 "sqm" in the console I now have the units sqm as a string, i was hoping for just 10 sqm
