What am i doing wrong in task 2? alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.trunc(temperature));

var temperature = 37.5; alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.trunc(temperature));

It says "It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing."

script.js
var temperature = 37.5;

var temperature = 37.5 alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.floor(temperature));

var temperature = 37.5 alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.floor(temperature));

Question is by the way:

Open an alert dialog a second time and display the temperature variable rounded downward to the nearest integer. You'll need to check the Mozilla Developer Network to find the proper Math method for this (hint: down is toward the "floor".)
