code not working

On the verification i get the answer: "use the variables". But i think i am using the variables. Where is the problem?

index.php 
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;

$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;

//Place your code below this comment

if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) {
  echo $studentOneName . " made the Honor Role";
} else {
  echo $studentOneName . " has a " . $studentOneGPA . " of 4.0\n";
}

if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) {
  echo $studentTwoName . " made the Honor Role";
} else {
  echo $studentTwoName . " has a " . $studentTwoGPA . " of 4.0";
}


?>

Hi there here is the code

if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) {
  echo $studentOneName . " made the Honor Role";
} else {
  echo $studentOneName . " has a GPA of " . $studentOneGPA  ;
}

if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) {
  echo $studentTwoName . " made the Honor Role";
} else {
  echo $studentTwoName . " has a GPA of " . $studentTwoGPA ;
}

The values of your String were wrong. Please look again in the instructions agian and compare both codes and you will see why the challange said "Nope this are the wrong values" :)
