Your code so far

var myVar = 87;

// Only change code below this line
myVar = myVar; //runs as myVar = 88
myVar = myVar++; //runs as myVar = 87
myVar = myVar+1; //runs as myVar = 88```

Delete it. It is useless.

Looking at the problem youā€™re just supposed to change the code to use ++, this is a little tricky if you donā€™t know how the return works. myVar++; will increment myVar, but return the old value of myVar.
So myVar = myVar++; does not actually change the value. ++myVar will increment and return the new value so myVar = ++myVar; would work, but itā€™s unnecessary. the whole myVar = myVar + 1; can be replaced with simply myVar++; by itself.
