Create a for loop that will begin with a value of 5 and end with a value of 25. In each iteration, add the incrementing value to mathTotal. When the loop has finished running, set 'isComplete' to true. (HINT: the last value used INSIDE the loop should be 25)

You're very close. Inside your loop, you should be increment the mathTotal variable by the value of i. Also, you'll want to move your isComplete = true; line outside the loop. Your final code should look like this:

int mathTotal;
bool isComplete;
for (int i = 5; i <= 25; i++){
        mathTotal += i;
}

isComplete = true;

int mathTotal = 0; BOOL isComplete;

for (int i = 5; (i <= 25); i++) { mathTotal = mathTotal + i }

isComplete = true;
