How to make a string?

Inside the stringGPA() method, convert the value of the gpa property to a string and return it.

adding_methods.js 
class Student {
    constructor(gpa){
        this.gpa = gpa;
    }  
  stringGPA() {
    Student.gpa + '';
  };  
};

const student = new Student(3.9);

Here is one way using Template Strings

class Student {
    constructor(gpa){
        this.gpa = gpa;
    }
  stringGPA(){
    return `${this.gpa}`;
  }
}

const student = new Student(3.9);
