+//*Answer
+// This expression returns the remainder of seconds, after dividing the movieLength by 60, 
+// using the modulus operator it returns 24 seconds

-// f) Try experimenting with different values of movieLength. Will this code work for all values of movieLength? Explain your answer
+// d) Interpret line 4, what does the expression assigned to totalMinutes mean?
+// *Answer
+// It is converting the seconds to minutes and rounding it to the last whole minute.
+
+// e) What do you think the variable result represents? 
+//*Answer
+// The result is the duration of the film in hours, minutes and seconds - 2:26:24.
