Hey Davide, remember to put semicolons after EVERY line. <br><br>

var temperature = 37.5 ; <br>

you also need to put the variable into the math formula. <br> <br>

alert(Math.round(temperature)); <br> <br>

Lastly, they want you to perform the same alert except use the ".floor" method instead of ".round". <br> <br>

alert(Math.floor(temperature)); <br>
