You should change the name of your parameter from MathOperation to number and you need to change your return type of your method to int instead of void.
By making your new method return the same type and accept the same type of parameters as the delegate, you will then be able to assign that method to the delegate.
Your final code should look something like this.
```c#
using System;
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Program
    {
        delegate int MathOperation(int number);
        public static int Add(int number)
        {
            return number + number;
        }
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

}
}
}
```
