Hi there,

You want to include the string in your output. You have done the interpolation correctly, but the output string should read "The product of 5 times 5 is 25".

You almost got it correct but the output is not exactly what the challenge wants.

It should be like this

let output = "The product of \(firstValue) times \(secondValue) is \(product)"
