The correct result is stored in `numberOf503` but `reduce` was not used.

But I did use reduce()......

app.js 
const phoneNumbers = ["(503) 123-4567", "(646) 123-4567", "(503) 987-6543", "(503) 234-5678", "(212) 123-4567", "(416) 123-4567"];
let numberOf503;

// numberOf503 should be: 3
// Write your code below

numberOf503 = 0;

phoneNumbers.reduce( (accum, phone) => {
  if (/(503)\w*/.test(phone)) {
    numberOf503 += 1;
    return numberOf503;
  }
    return numberOf503;
}, 0);

I think it's referring to not assigning the return value of reduce to numberOf503, as in:

numberOf503 = phoneNumbers.reduce( (accum, phone) => {
  if (/(503)\w*/.test(phone)) {
    accum += 1;
    return accum;
  }
    return accum;
}, 0);
