 // For the piece of code above, read the code and then answer the following questions
 
+
 // a) How many variable declarations are there in this program?
+//There are six variable declarations in this program. The lines where variable declarations are made:
+//1. Line 1: const movieLength = 8784;
+//2. Line 3: const remainingSeconds = movieLength % 60;
+//3. Line 4: const totalMinutes = (movieLength - remainingSeconds) / 60;
+//4. Line 6: const remainingMinutes = totalMinutes % 60;
+//5. Line 7: const totalHours = (totalMinutes - remainingMinutes) / 60;
+//6. Line 9: const result = `${totalHours}:${remainingMinutes}:${remainingSeconds}`;
 
 // b) How many function calls are there?
+//There are two function calls in this program. The lines where function calls are made are:
+//1. Line 9: `${totalHours}:${remainingMinutes}:${remainingSeconds}`;
+//2. Line 10: console.log(result);
 
 // c) Using documentation, explain what the expression movieLength % 60 represents
 // https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Arithmetic_Operators
 
+//The expression "movieLength % 60" calculates the remainder when the value of "movieLength" is divided by 60. 
+//In this context, it is used to determine the number of seconds remaining after converting the total movie 
+//length from seconds into minutes. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, this operation effectively gives us the 
+//leftover seconds that do not make up a full minute. 
+
 // d) Interpret line 4, what does the expression assigned to totalMinutes mean?
+//The expression assigned to "totalMinutes" in line 4 calculates the total number of minutes in the movie length. 
+//It does this by first subtracting the remaining seconds (calculated in line 3) from the total movie length in seconds. 
+//This gives the total number of seconds that can be fully converted into minutes. Then, it divides that value by 60 to 
+//convert the total seconds into total minutes. The result is the total number of complete minutes in the movie length, 
+//excluding any leftover seconds.
 
 // e) What do you think the variable result represents? Can you think of a better name for this variable?
+// The variable result represents the formatted time string in the format "hours:minutes:seconds".
+// A better name for this variable could be "formattedTime" or "movieDuration" 
 
 // f) Try experimenting with different values of movieLength. Will this code work for all values of movieLength? Explain your answer
+//The code will work for all positive integer values of movieLength, as it correctly calculates the hours, minutes, 
+//and seconds based on the total length in seconds. But will not work for negative values of movieLength, 
+//as it will produce negative hours, minutes, and seconds, which does not make sense in the context of a movie length.
