let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5

// Task 1 - Enter your code below

Hello Or,

First off, for your result constant, they want you to use the other constant names in your operation, like so:

let result = value % divisor

I remember step 2 confusing me a lot when I first tried it. I know for me, I tried to make it more complex than it had to be. So, to compare result to 0 to see if they are the same is this:

result == 0

So let’s assign that to a constant named isPerfectMultiple, like so:

let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0

So this creates a Boolean constant, that when result is equal to 0, will show true. You could even declare it explicitly to make it a bit easier to understand.

let isPerfectMultiple: Bool = result == 0

and either should pass the challenge. Hope this helps!
