You should write all the new code below the comment line. You won't need to declare the output variable since that's done in the supplied code. Just assign it.

You have the right idea for your solution, but when you use the long form of an arrow function (with the body in braces), you need to return the result. You could also use the compact form here and the result is implicitly returned.
