-// =============> write your explanation here
+
+// this is a function to convert a decimal number to a percentage - function declared
+// the decimal number is declared as 0.5
+// percentage is calculated by multiplying the decimal number by 100 and then adding the % symbol
+// the answer returned is named percentage and gives a number followed by %
+// the answer will be printed in console
 
 // Finally, correct the code to fix the problem
-// =============> write your new code here
+// the error was actually 'decimalNumber' has already been declared
+// this was because decimalNumber was declared inside the function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) and
+// declared again within the function with the const statement
+// once const decimalNumber = 0.5; was moved outside the function this error was resolved
+// that way the global decimalNumber exists and the function can still accept it as an argument
+
+
+// const decimalNumber = 0.5;
+// function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) {
+//   const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;
