You're really struggling, aren't you?

It's
, not


If you want a bigger or equal b, you don't write , but

Your assignments are full of fail too. The variable you assign to needs to be on the left hand side.
Wrong

you're trying assign to a value. You might as well try to say 1=2 and from now on 1*1 equals 4
Correct(er):

But it won't work, because sales and total are decimals and 1.03 is a double. You can't mix those without a cast and ideally you should simply use a decimal literal instead:

Yes i am really struggling, hence the asking for help part. But i do appreciate the fixes you gave me, although im curious what the "m" does to fix the solution. I did it, and theres no longer a squiggly line under it, but i dont know why.

infact everything works except theres a squiggly under the underlined portion now:

-----------

{
decimal sales, total, profit;
Console.WriteLine("Enter Sales Amount: ");
sales = decimal.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
{

if (sales >= 1000) total = sales*1.03m;

if (sales >= 1000.1 ||<= 5000) total = sales*1.035m;

if (sales >= 5000.1 || <= 10000) total = sales*1.04m;

if(sales >= 10000.1) total = sales*1.045m;

}

profit = remainder - sales;
Console.WriteLine("The Companies Total Profits were: $" );
Console.ReadKey();

}

--------------

cant figure out what im doing wrong on the other side of the statement. Also i removed the "else" entirely because no matter what side it was on, it was red squigglied.

p.s. Thank you for your help sir, i do appreciate it.

both sides of || must evaluate to a boolean.

<= 5000

does not evaluate to a boolean

Oh, yeah, I missed that.

Check your work, I can already tell you never go into your else if statements.

You do know || is an OR type statement, and not an AND type statement?

I didn't bother to correct the logic - I only made the syntax work.

Lol? Where did that come from?
