end of line issue

I got an end of line issue with this challenge , not sure how to fix that

starter.py 
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]


def add(num1, num2):
    return num1 + num2


def subtract(num1, num2):
    return num1 - num2


def mathy(num1, num2):
    up = add(5 + 7, 7 + 9)
    down = subtract(6, 3)

return add(up, down)

Indentation is very important in Python; take a look at your mathy function definition and the indentation/nesting on the return statement.
