The alert dialog comes up with the correct answer, 37. Why do I get an opps?

Correct answer of 37 comes up when using the Math.floor code, but I do not get a well done. What codes am I missing or what was suppose to be done.

script.js 
var temperature = 37.5;
var roundedTemp = Math.floor(temperature);
alert(roundedTemp);

you just need to use the math.round to pass the challenge instead of math.floor. math.round(temperature);
