// Enter your code below func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double { let temperatureInFahrenheit = temperature return(temperatureInFahrenheit)
// Enter your code below
func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double {
let temperatureInFahrenheit = temperature
return(temperatureInFahrenheit)

"To convert from Celcius to Fahrenheit - multiply the value by 9, divide the resulting value by 5 and then add 32."
note: when they say multiply the value, they really mean temperature in this case because that is the parameter in our function's signature
Instead of just passing the argument temperature straight into your constant, do the math above and assign it to the constant, this way, your temperatureInFahrenheit constant holds the correct temperature in fahrenheit, converted from celcius
Also on your return statement, get rid of the parenthese around your constant's name, you want to only return the temperatureInFahrenheit, not a tuple.

1,119 PointsAm I moving in the correct direction now for step 2 of 3? // Enter your code below func temperatureInFahrenheit(temperature: Double) -> Double { let temperatureInFahrenheit = temperature * 9 / 5 + 32 return temperatureInFahrenheit }
