Need help with Saas function challenge please

Here is the question: Write a function, called double, that multiplies its input by 2.

Here is what I think the answer should be but it is incorrect... @function double($input) { @return ($input*2); }

What is the correct function declaration?

Hey Jill,

You're close! You just don't need the parenthesis :

@function double($input) { @return $input * 2; }
