Using `.replace()` with the first parameter set to find the part of the original string to replace, and the second parameter should be the replacement.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Hint 1:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Modify the regex so that `fixRegex` detects the part of the string to replace and the variable `replaceText` should be modified to the string that will replace `fixRegex`.
