The problem

I'm trying to compute and display the sum of 8 and 9 in JavaScript.

Failed attempt

My JavaScript code looks like this:

const sum = 5 + 9
alert(sum)

When I run the code in a web browser it displays the number 14 instead of the expected number 17.

The question(s)

Why does it display the number 14 instead of the expected number 17?

With your current code you compute the sum of 5 and 9, not the sum of 8 and 9.

Close this issue if you think your problem is solved.
