Quiz Question 3 of 4 on Ruby Basics String Creation

I have a problem with this question. It is regarding double quotes or single quotes for creating a string.

A string CAN be created with single or double quotes, it just won't be INTERPOLATED properly unless the interpolation is between the double quotes (I know I just tested it) so the question needs revising because you can create a string between single or double quotes as long as you interpolate properly later.

Please copy and paste the question for better results: ::::::: Which of the following would be used to create an interpolated string? ::::::::: The intent of the question was which quotation marks would you need to use if you need interpolation. There is only one right answer here as a single quote will not interpolate a variable.
