Where does the + sign go?

I'm sorry to be a bother, but I'm trying my best. Just really stumped on this problem; coding is kinda fun that way though. It's like sexy Sudoku.

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName= id.toUpperCase(lastName.toUpperCase("23188XTR#SMITH"));
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

it seems to like:

var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase()+"#"+lastName.toUpperCase();
