Tell us what’s happening:

The code meets gives the desired output but still doesn’t pass

Your code so far

function averagePace(miles, timeStr) {
  const [minStr, secStr] = timeStr.split(":");
  const totalSeconds = parseInt(minStr) * 60 + parseInt(secStr);

  const avgSeconds = Math.round(totalSeconds / miles);

  const minutes = Math.floor(avgSeconds / 60).toString().padStart(2, "0");
  const seconds = (avgSeconds % 60).toString().padStart(2, "0");

  return `${minutes}:${seconds}`;
}

The tests can only call the function with the name that they were written to expect. If you change the name of the function, then the tests will fail.
