Hey Mahmoud Rajabzadeh-Mashhadi,

You need to use string interpolation to add the values associated with the constants into your strings.

// Enter your code below
let firstValue = 2
let secondValue = 4
let product = firstValue * secondValue
let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"

Good Luck!

Thanks so much Steve.
