Hi, I am wondering why this isn't correct, what am I missing?

Hi from the advice on the bummer statement it sounds like A is greater then B and my code sends out the else.

script.js 
const a = 10;
const b = 20;
const c = 30;
if(a > b){
   console.log("a is greater then b");
}
else{
  console.log("a is not greater then b");
}
