iOS Swift Basics Swift Operators Working With Operators

lost on where remainder is 0.

I used the remainder on value and divisor, but don't understand what needs to be done for second step.

operators.swift
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5

let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5

// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = "\(value) % \(divisor)"

// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isPerfectMultiple == result

For part 1, you did the right thing by eliminating the string, but you still want to use the variables by name.

And for part 2, you don't want to assign 0 directly to the new variable, you want to assign the result of comparing the result with 0.

For part 1, you'll use the remainder operator directly on the variables, but without converting anything into a string. This operation is being done on numbers, and will result in a number.

Then for part 2, you will assign the new variable (one "=") with the result of comparing (two "==") the result with 0.

So for part 1. it should be INT instead of string?

And for part 2 still confused

// Task 1 - Enter your code below let result = 200 % 5

// Task 2 - Enter your code below let isPerfectMultiple = 0

Thanks man!
