i think i am doing this right but I don't know what to put next after making a new variable taxes
struct Expense {
var description: String
var amount: Double = 0.0
init (description: String) {
self.description = description
}
// add the calculateTaxes method here
// it should accept only one parameter named 'percentage' of type Double
func calculateTaxes(percentage: Double) -> Double {
return (self.amount * (percentage/100))
}
}
var item = Expense (description: "Hello")
item.amount = 100
item.calculateTaxes
var taxes =

6,004 PointsTry this. I jumped in with a parachute to that challenge, but this should do the trick:
instead of
item.calculateTaxes
var taxes =
try
var taxes = item.calculateTaxes(7.5)
