Not sure what I'm asked to do

I am asked to In this task we're going to declare two strings. First, declare a constant named name and assign to it a String containing your name.

Second, declare a constant named greeting. Set the value of greeting to an interpolated string that combines "Hi there, " with the string stored in the name constant. My tip: Make sure the value you are assigning to greeting is an interpolated string. ( still not sure what to do)

strings.swift
// Enter your code below
let name = "Deion"
let greeting = "Hi there,"
Hi there, = interpolated
let interpolatedGreetingName = "\(greeting) \(name)"

Hi, So you have to add constant name to greeting constant then make constant finalGreeting with gretting + "How are you?" You can write it like this:

let name = "Deion"
let greeting = "Hi There, \(name)";
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
