 // 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?
+// Answer: 6
 
 // b) How many function calls are there?
+// Answer: 1 (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
+// Answer: It returns the remainder after movieLength is divided by 60.
+// This gives the number of seconds left over after converting to minutes.
 
 // d) Interpret line 4, what does the expression assigned to totalMinutes mean?
+// Answer: It subtracts the remaining seconds from the total seconds,
+// then divides by 60 to calculate the total whole minutes.
 
 // e) What do you think the variable result represents? Can you think of a better name for this variable?
+// Answer: It represents the movie duration in hours:minutes:seconds.
+// A better name 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
+// Answer: It works for most values, but it does not always display
+// the time in the standard format because single-digit minutes or
+// seconds are not padded with a leading zero (for example, 5 instead of 05).
