Step 2: When value obtained using a remainder operator is 0, this means that the value is a perfect multiple of the divi

Question

Step 2: When value obtained using a remainder operator is 0, this means that the value is a perfect multiple of the divisor. Compare the value of result to 0 using the equality operator and assign the resulting value to a constant named isPerfectMultiple.

operators.swift

// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5

let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5

// Task 1 - Enter your cde below
let resuint = 0
let isPerfectMultiple = 0
result == isPerfectMultiple

// Task 2 - Enter your code below

Hi Vinod,

I've just finished this section of the iOS course and I have the solution to your problem. instead of assigning the value of "0" to isPerfectMultiple , and do not assign "0" to result immediatley after creation. rather set it's value to the result of the following operation - value % divisor

Should look like this :

let result: Int = value % divisor

for the 2nd Task :

let isPerfectMultiple: Bool = (result == 0) - basically checking equality using "==" the equals operator

! note - do not confuse "=" with "==" (or rather "=" assignment operator)

! note - I have used explicit typing when declaring variables , it's up to you to choose how to do it.
