question comprehension

the wording of the question is a bit confusing. the words "value" and "result" are used as both constants and also as there definition?

operators.swift
// Enter your code below
let value = 200
let divisor = 5

let someOperation = 20 + 400 % 10 / 2 - 15
let anotherOperation = 52 * 27 % 200 / 2 + 5

let result = value % divisor

// Task 2 - Enter your code below

Hi Jean! So they're saying that value and divisor are the constants you'll be using for your operations. whenever they are referring to the words "value" and "divisor," they are referring to the constants declared above (200 and 5 respectively). they're asking you to assign "value" % "divisor" to another constant called result. Hopefully this answered your question? If not let me know!
