iOS Swift 2.0 Basics Swift Operators Working With Operators

The value assigned to isPerfectMultiple should be the result of a comparison operation

I have tried the code and I don't see where I'm going wrong. Please help me find the issue. Thanks :)

operators.swift 
// 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
value % divisor
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
result == 0
let isPerfectMultiple = result

You have your comparison before where you define the isPerfectMultiple. It may run that comparison, but the boolean value you would get from it is not stored anywhere. In short: your last two lines should be in one. 

let isPerfectMultiple = result  ==  0

Here we take result which is the result of value % divisor and compare it to 0. If it was 0, then isPerfectMultiple is true.
