In your code above you are using the incorrect syntax and are half declaring a method and trying to assign it at the same time. Here's an example of a random method I created to help you understand. Try and use it to make a method that returns the variable mColor to complete the challenge.
public class GoKart {
public String mColor = "red";
//method example
public Int GiveRandomInt()
{
return (int)Math.random()
}
}
