The first task results in code looking like:
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0
Here we have used the mod operator to assign the result of value mod divisor into the constant result. Then we test result to see if it is zero, and assign the resulting boolean (true/false) into the constant, isPerfectMultiple.
I'll post the next task in a second ...
Steve.

The challenge is to compare them to see if someOperation is greater than anotherOperation. The result of that comparison needs to be stored in another boolean constant called isGreater. To compare them we use the greater than symbol, like this:
let isGreater = someOperation > anotherOperation
And that completes the challenge!
Steve.
