Hi Frederik,

Your very close, I just see two main issues.

First of all check the spelling on your variables -- the second line contains "numeTwo" instead of "numTwo".

Second, they want you to return a number and not a string. You've used backticks and string interpolation on your variables which will make them in to strings.

If you fix the spelling and remove `${}` from your return statements (leaving just the variable name) you should be good to go.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
