xcode approves it but quiz doesnt. can someone help out please?

:((

types.swift 
// Enter your code below
let firstValue:Int = 2
let secondValue:Int = 4
let product:Int = 8
let output:String = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product) "

Using these values, we want to compute the product and print out the product in a formatted string.

Step 1: Declare a constant named product and assign the result of multiplying firstValue and secondValue together. (To multiply two values, a and b, we write a * b).

Step 2: Using string interpolation, create a string literal that describes the operation we just performed. For example, given the following values for firstValue, secondValue and product respectively: 2, 4, 8. The string should read: "The product of 2 times 4 is 8". Assign this string to a constant named output.
