You're supposed to assign the uppercase version of id to the variable userName. You also should be using the id variable name on the toUpperCase method. You're currently re-assigning lastName with the String "213188xtr#SMITH".
var userName = id.toUpperCase();

The Correct Code is:
var id = "23188xtr"; var lastName = "Smith";
var userName = id.toUpperCase();
