Compound Assignment With Augmented Multiplication1

JavaScript
1

Tell us what’s happening:

Your code so far


var a = 5;
var b = 12;
var c = 4.6;

// Only modify code below this line

a *= 5 * 5;
b *= 3 * b;
c *= c * 10;

you are given the following code to start with:


a = a * 5;
b = 3 * b;
c = c * 10;

and you are asked to use compound assignment with multiplication to change it.
So I’ll show you how to do the first one:

a *= 5; \\this is exactly the same as a = a * 5;

Hopefully this helps you complete the exercise.
