Answer 1

You should use == instead of =

    if (enoughTreats == true) {
        System.out.println("There are enough treats for all the hamsters!");
    }
    else {
        System.out.println("Oh no! There aren't enough treats!");        
    }

Remember that == is the comparison operator and = is the assignment operator.

And as Mike mentioned, just having if(enoughTreats) will do the trick for you. No need to use == operator!

As a matter of fact, you don't need the boolean variable enoughTreats at all. You could just write your condition like so:

if (treatsPerHamster >= neededTreats) {
    // do one thing
}
else {
    // do other
}
