I think you missed the first part of the instructions. First, they ask you to assign a constant product to firstValue * secondValue. Then they ask you to use string interpolation to write out the string:

// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 60
let secondValue = 3
let product = firstValue * secondValue

let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"
