Problem returning string

I'm not sure what is wrong with my code for the ruby methods exercise

method.rb 
def mod(a, b)
  c = a % b
  puts "The remainder of #{a} divided by #{b} is #{c}"
end

First, your method isn't returning a value. Your method will print a string, but it won't a return value. Secondly, you're missing a period at the end of your string that needs to be there to match the desired output.
