The course does not teach you how to write the equation to find the multiples of a number.
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
// Enter your code below
// End code
}

The simplest way of doing that code wise is to use the remainder / modulo operator (%), just like you do when trying to find even numbers.
So the equation is something like this:
num1 % num2 == 0
That expression will be true if num1 is a multiple of num2, and false otherwise.
