```swift let firstValue = 2 let secondValue = 5 let product = "\(firstValue) "*" \(secondValue)" What is wrong?

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong or what the next step is. Should I be using x code during these tutorials or not at all?

types.swift 
// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 2
let secondValue = 5

let product = "\(firstValue) "*" \(secondValue)"

You made the multiplication operator a String object let product = "(firstValue) "*" (secondValue)"

try 

let firstValue = 2
let secondValue = 5
let product = "\(firstValue) * \(secondValue)"

Thank You! I think I may be messing up on the next step because I still can't advance... /Users/justin/Desktop/Screen Shot 2017-04-19 at 12.54.55 PM.png
