Challenge Task 2 of 2
Great job with the first task! In this task, we have two math operations. Without computing the values of those operations, we'd like to know if the first operation, someOperation is greater than, equal to or less than anotherOperation.
Use the greater than or equal to operator and assign the Boolean result of the comparison to a constant named isGreater.
// 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 code below
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0
let isGreater = "5" >= "7" false

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsOn the last line, you shouldn't put the word "false". It's going to check to see if the statement is true or false, and put the boolean value (in this case false) inside of the isGreater constant.
If you take away the word false the code passes. But I think what they really want you to do is actually use the variable names of someOperation and anotherOperation instead of just manually putting in the numbers "5" and "7". (That way if you build a program like this, if something changed in the way the those operations happened it could also change the boolean value in isGreater. Right now they're operating independently).
So that line of code could look like this:
let isGreater = someOperation >= anotherOperation
