The answer is String favoriteColor = "Green";

Why? Because the problem with it was....

You first need to declare what type of variable this is which is a string so that needs to go first same as if it was an int or a double or float or object.

Next you need the name of the variable in this case is favoriteColor followed by an actual equals sign ( = ) then within the quotes you put your fav colour which happens to be green with regards to me :)

Hope this helped

That is what I typed but it said I was wrong
