Doing Math with Dave McFarland

var secondsPermin = 60;
var minsPerHour = 60;
var hoursPerDay = 24;
var daysPerWeek = 7;
var weeksPerYear = 52;
var secondsPerday =  secondsPermin * minsPerHour * hoursPerDay;
document.wite("There are " + secondsPerday + " senconds in a day");

I want to check everything is ok, but when I go to preview, I can get only TIME CALCULATOR, could you guys please let me know what is wrong?

(MOD: I just updated the question to add in some code formatting per the Markdown Cheatsheet. It'll be easier to read and easier for people to help you out!)

I will give you one piece of tip. If you check everything and it seems okay and still not showing anything when you review although you double checked. Please follow these steps. On the preview window go to console by CTRL+SHIFT+J , the console will show you exactly which line needs to be fixed and when the error coming from. You can try now this problem above and you will see the error was document.wite. Hope I helped you!
