Hey Shadrach,

The first part of that Challenge wants you to round temperature to the nearest integer. If you check the docs, over at the MDN, you'll find that the way to do that is the Math#round() method, which you're using, but incorrectly. Also, on that page you'll find a method to round things down by the name of Math#floor(). Let me know if that helps you out :)
