Could you help me with some feedback?

Hey guys! New coder here, took me a while to figure this one out (kept getting weird errors when refreshing while my code was right, a simply close the preview and reopen the preview solved it weirdly enough...) looking for some feedback. Took me a while to get and still got some ways to go (I'm curious how one can answer a question and have the program ignore grammatical characters like commas or perhaps even the order of the answers). Anyways, sorry for the long post! I hope you enjoy!

var correctAnswer = 0;
var addition = prompt("What is 1000+1000?");
if (parseInt(addition) === 2000) {
  correctAnswer += 1;
  alert("You're right! You've answered " + correctAnswer + " questions correctly!");
} else {
  alert("Sorry, you answered incorrectly.");
}


var color = prompt("What are the three primary colors in alphabetical order?");
if(color.toLowerCase() === "blue, red, yellow") {
  correctAnswer +=  1;
  alert("You're right! You've answered " + correctAnswer + " questions correctly!");
} else {
  alert("Sorry, you answered incorrectly.");
}


var tweet = prompt("What programming language was Twitter built in?");
if (tweet.toLowerCase() === 'ruby') {
  correctAnswer += 1;
  alert("You're right! You've answered " + correctAnswer + " questions correctly!");
} else {
  alert("Sorry, you answered incorrectly.");
}


var multiply = prompt("What is 10 x 15?");
if (parseInt(multiply) === 150) {
  correctAnswer += 1;
  alert("You're right! You've answered " + correctAnswer + " questions correctly!");
} else {
  alert("Sorry, you answered incorrectly.");
}


var fonts = prompt("What is a browser's default font-size in pixels?");
if (parseInt(fonts) === 16) {
  correctAnswer += 1;
  alert("You're right! You've answered " + correctAnswer + " questions correctly!");
} else {
  alert("Sorry, you answered incorrectly.");
}

alert("You answered " + correctAnswer + " out of 5 questions correctly!");
var crown;
if(correctAnswer === 5) {
  document.write("<p>Congratulations! You've earned a Gold Crown!</p>");
} else if(correctAnswer <= 4 && 3<= correctAnswer) {
  document.write("<p>Congratulations! You've earned a Silver Crown!</p>");
} else if(correctAnswer <= 2 && 1<= correctAnswer) {
  document.write("<p>Congratulations! You've earned a Bronze Crown!</p>");
} else {
  document.write("<p>Sorry, you did not earn a crown.</p>");
}

Hi its working good for me.! Good job! Also to make it easier to see when you post code you can use the markdown cheat sheet in order to show it properly, for example the javascript is three tick marks which is next to the 1 key and then type javascript in lowercase then to end just use three tick marks like this

//```javascript
var javascript = "JavaScript";
console.log(javascript);
//```

Sounds great! Thanks for your feedback and for the info! So when I'm making a post, just use the markdown so that it will display properly? Thanks again!
