Your code seems fine.

3

Ya see, I did that. It’s not accepting my answer.

4

When you try to submit this, what hint do they give you?

5

HInt: Your .red CSS rule should have a background property with the value rgb(255, 0, 0) .

6

Please try a different browser.

7

Perhaps you’re using a extension that affects your browser’s color settings. Try deactivating all extensions while being on freecodecamp.

Have you tried “background-color: rgb(255, 0 , 0)” instead of just “background” property?

Don’t use Safari , it is incompatible
