not correct? def check_speed(car_speed) return "safe" if (car_speed >= 40) && (car_speed < 50) end

Ruby path -> logical operation -> question 1

its asking to return the string "safe" if the car_speed is atleast 40 and less than 50

why is it not working?

ruby.rb 
def check_speed(car_speed)
  return "safe" if (car_speed >= 40) && (car_speed < 50)
end

this is a poorly constructed question, anyway here is the solution

def check_speed(car_speed)
  if (car_speed > 39) && (car_speed <= 50)
    return "safe"
  end
end
