converting an if statement to a conditional operator in Java

How do I simplify this code with a conditional operator in Java? This is from dr. Liang's Introduction to Java.

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int i = 3;
        int j = 4;
        int k = max(i, j);
        System.out.println("The max int is " + k);
    }

    public static int max(int num1, int num2) {
        int result;

        if (num1 > num2) {
            result = num1;
        }

        else {
            result = num2;
        }

        return result;

    }
}
