I Need Help!

Hello Everyone,

I am new to Treehouse and I just started JavaScript. I am working on this Hoisting challenge and can't figure out how to correctly alter the code so that it follows the best scoping practices. Can someone point me in the right direction?

think of how you declare the variable inside and outside the if statement, when do you use the var deceleration and when should you not?
