Create a new variable named myAge and assign it a number value _ How do I resove this?

I am stuck on a question on Javascript basic. The question is:

Create a new variable named myAge and assign it a number value.

I have tried to retake the full course but Iā€™m still not sure what the correct solution is. I have so far tried with these different ones:

Var myAge = 10; Var myAge = "10"; Var myAge = '10';

My error message says: Bummer , did you create a string value to the number value.

scripts.js 
var myAge = 10;

Found an answer that worked: var myName = "Felix"; var myAge = 27; var response = myName + " is " + (myAge);
