var userName = “”;
userName?
console.log(“Hello Jane!”):
console.log(“Hello!”);
const userQuestion = “Will i be rich?”;
console.log(The user asked: ${userQuestion});
var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 8);
let eightBall = “”;

if (randomNumber === 0); {
console.log(“It is certain”);
} else if (randomNumber === 1); {
console.log(“It is decidedly so”);
} else if (randomNumber === 2);{
console.log(“Reply hazy try again”);
} else if (randomNumber === 3);{
console.log(“Cannot predict now”);
} else if (randomNumber === 4);{
console.log(“Do not count on it”);
} else if (randomNumber === 5);{
console.log(“My sources say no”);
} else if (randomNumber = 6);{
console.log(“Outlook not so good”);
} else if (randomNumber = 7);{
console.log(“Signs point to yes”);
} else (randomNumber = 8); {
console.log(“One in a million”);
}
console.log(The eight ball answered: ${eightBall});

says in the console:
} else if (randomNumber === 1); {
^^^^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token else

I would use switch here.

as for your syntax error, that is caused by incorrect usage of semi-colons.

if (randomNumber === 0); {, the semi-colon in this line is interrupting your if condition. And given else if can only be after an if or another else if, you get an syntax error
