Review Summary
Your implementation correctly handles all core requirements: parsing population data, converting strings to numbers, calculating totals and averages, and formatting output with thousands separators. However, there's a syntax issue on line 17 with a double semicolon (;;). While JavaScript treats this as valid syntax (two empty statements), most linters will flag it as an error and fail the build. Remove one semicolon to fix this.
Additionally, consider adding validation before parsing to handle cases where text might not be convertible to numbers—this would prevent NaN values from corrupting your calculations.

Double semicolon is a syntax error. Remove one semicolon.

Review Summary
Your solution correctly implements all the required functionality. The code properly parses population data from the DOM, handles the comma-separated number conversion, calculates both the total and average values accurately, and formats the output with thousands separators using toLocaleString('en-US'). The previous double semicolon issue has been resolved, and your implementation only modifies the necessary main.js file as specified. All checklist items pass, and there are no critical blockers preventing task completion. Great work on meeting all the requirements!
