Score card - points deducted for 4 of 5 stars

Hi, this was my first review and I selected the button 4 of 5 stars but received this message on my score card:
"The rating wasn't properly written by showing out of how much are they rating the review. It should have been ‘4 out of 5 stars.’"

Is it because in my actual review I said "I gave this book a 4-star review because...." Should I have said I gave this book a 4 out of 5 stars" ?

Yes, you need to mention that it is 4 out of 5 because just saying a 4-star review might indicate that it was 4 out of 4 stars.
