monsters[fighting].health
monsters is an array of objects
you access the current monster object which is the value of fighting
you access the health value within this object with .health
const monsters = [
{ name: ‘slime’, level: 2, health: 15 },
{ name: ‘fanged beast’, level: 8, health: 60 },
{ name: ‘dragon’, level: 20, health: 300 }

[Below your update call, set the monsterHealth to be the health of the current monster. You can get this value by accessing the health property of monsters[fighting] with dot notation.] i don’t really understand what to do.
This is the code below

function goFight() {
update(locations[3]);

}

You are just posting the unedited code. I can not help you solve the problem, since I don’t know what you are doing wrong.

Hey, I found the solution to your problem. Try using the snippet below.

function goFight() {
  update(locations[3]);
  monsterHealth = monsters[fighting].health;
}

Let me know if that worked for you.
