Constants code challenge - replace magic numbers and if, else if, else statements to constants

Perhaps I'm just tired but I am unsure of how to even approach this challenge and change the statements to constant variables.

Edit: I found the answer after a lot of digging through the community posts. Still, this question is just confusing to me. Working code for anyone else having issues:

const int revenue = 125000;
const int red = 100000;
const int yellow = 150000;
const string redColor = "red";
const string yellowColor = "yellow";
const string greenColor = "green";
string status = null;

if (revenue < red)
{
    status = redColor;
}
else if (revenue < yellow)
{
    status = yellowColor;
}
else
{
    status = greenColor;
}
