Say you had a conditional statement with one if clause..." did not understand the question

In other words, in any conditional statement with multiple clauses only 1 code block will ever run. The question is not written that well as my first thought was the maximum number of evaluations so if "a" were 400, I thought it would run down the entire code block (4 evaluations).

Hi there! The question is asking if you had something like this:

if (a < 100) {
   console.log("a is less than 100");
} else if (a < 200) {
   console.log("a is at least 100 and less than 200");
} else if (a < 300) {
   console.log("a is at least 200 and less than 300");
} else {
    console.log("a is at least 300");
}

But the point here is this: only one of those code blocks will run. It will not continue going down the list to the next evaluation. If I were to make a = 50, it will log out "a is less than 100". Now, clearly, 50 is also less than 200, but that evaluation never occurs because the first thing that evaluates to true will run and the entire if/else if/else structure will be escaped.

Hope this helps!
