I believe the issue is that you're trying to assign a text entry to a numeric variable value. Replace your text entry field with a numeric entry field and it likely will work.
Re-check Your References: Sometimes, typos or case sensitivity can lead to issues. Ensure that you're referencing the variables with the exact names as they appear in the variables panel.

However if you name them poorly, it is possible to be confused by similar names, and choose the wrong one.
