Hey Justin Roman, I know it is frustrating sometimes but once you understand it should be easy. I am just in year seven who is 12 years old, who has no degree but wants to work for Google as a Software Engineer.

Okay so here is how you do the whole Code Challenge

You first want to put your age

years = 12

Then you want to multiply your age by 365

years * 365

After that, you want to find the days

days = years * 365

Finally, you want to find the weeks

weeks = days / 7

So below is what you must type to complete the Code Challenge (remember to click the return key after each line. E.g years 12, then you press the return key. years * 365 then you press the return and so on)

years = 12 years * 365 days = years * 365 weeks = days / 7

I hope this helped.
