It goes right above the closing body tag, like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <title> JavaScript Foundations: Variables</title>
    <style>
      html {
        background: #FAFAFA;
        font-family: sans-serif;
      }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1 id="title">JavaScript Foundations</h1>
    <h2>Variables: Basics</h2>

    <div id="container">
      This is a div with the id of "container"
    </div>
    <script src="myscript.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>
