Tell us what’s happening:
The average rating that I’m getting by adding all the ratings and dividing by the number of ratings is 8.52. The exercise says that the average should be 8.675. How should the average be calculated?

Thanks beforehand

function getRating(watchList) {
  // Only change code below this line
  let averageRating;

 
 averageRating = watchList.reduce(function(sum, rates) {
  const aveR = sum + rates.imdbRating *1;
  return aveR}, 0);


  console.log("length of watchList", watchList.length);
  console.log("averageRating",averageRating);

  // Only change code above this line
  return averageRating/watchList.length;
}

console.log(getRating(watchList));

Take a closer look at the instructions, there’s one detail specifying that not all ratings should be used.
