String Method To Return A Double

I'm having an issue with figuring out how to structure and call a method using a string prompt. My prof has given us specific methods to create, and the one I'm having issues with is blic static double getOperand(String prompt). What I have currently is this:

public static double getOperand(String operand1, String operand2){
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("What is the first operand?");
operand1 = input.toString();

System.out.println("What is the second operand?");
operand2 = input.toString();
return operand1, operand2;
}

which is obviously not working. When I asked my prof he sent me this, "The String paramater in the getOperand() method is intended to have the prompt value that is passed to it. Within the method, the prompt is then displayed, what the prompt is asking for is input, and then returned to the method call.For example, if the method is public double getOperand(String prompt) within the method you would display the prompt, as in System. out. println(prompt), use the Scanner class to create an object, perhaps called input, and then use the input object to get the value asked for by the prompt. Once you have that value, which in this example would be a double, then return the value to the method that called it.

The call could be something like this: double value = getOperand("What is the first operand?");". But that only works a little. Clearly I'm missing something and no matter what I google, or how many times I read the chapter, I am just not getting this. Everything else up to this point has been easy. and I can create regular methods just fine, the menu method works, but I can't figure out this string method and all the rest build off this method.
