Using return method to do this assignment

Question

Write a method to delete character in a string.
Example:
A call to deleteChar(?hello?, ?l?) will return heo
A call to deleteChar(?madam?, ?a?) will return mdm
I have tried to solve this problem using return method, but it doesn't work. Please help me do this exercise with return method in main method.
Here is my work, using void method in main method
     private static void deleteChar(String input, String deletedChar) {
          for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); i++) {
               if (!(input.charAt(i) + "").equalsIgnoreCase(deletedChar)) {
                    System.out.print(input.charAt(i));
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          String input, deletedChar;
          Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in);
          System.out.print("Enter a String: ");
          input = kb.nextLine();
          System.out.println("Enter a letter you want to delete from String: ");
          deletedChar = kb.nextLine();
          deleteChar(input, deletedChar);
     }

In your main method, you replace the line
deleteChar(input, deletedChar);by
String result = deleteChar(input, deletedChar); and the method by :
private static String deleteChar(String input, String deletedChar) {
    return input.replaceAll(deletedChar, "");
}
