converting integer to string value

The last test question wants me to convert the integer into a string variable by adding two values.

RandomTest.java
Random randomGenerator = new Random();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(facts.length);
String[] intAsString = {
                        randomNumber };

Here's the challenging question. I cannot figure out how to do. :/ "Create a String variable named intAsString. Convert the randomNumber integer to a String value and store it in the intAsString variable. Hint: Add them together like in the video!"

int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(10);
String intAsString = randomNumber + "";
