470 PointsI am not sure why the following is incorrect. " someOperation > anotherOperation = true let isGreater = true "
It says the answer should not just be a Bool value but a comparison but that is what I thought I was doing.
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = 200 % 5
let isPerfectMultiple = true
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
someOperation > anotherOperation = true
let isGreater = true

let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = value % divisor
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isPerfectMultiple = result == 0
let isGreater = someOperation >= anotherOperation

Your somewhat close. First let me explain what is wrong in your code:
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = 200 % 5
let isPerfectMultiple = true
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
someOperation > anotherOperation = true //your comparing someOperation to anotherOperation then saying thats equal to true. This wont compile.
let isGreater = true //Your saying let constant named isGreater is equal to true.
Now take a look how it should be:
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5
let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5
// Task 1 - Enter your code below
let result = 200 % 5
let isPerfectMultiple = true
// Task 2 - Enter your code below
let isGreater = someOperation >= anotherOperation //says let constant isGreater equal the boolean value of the comparison (someOperation >= anotherOperation)
