External stylesheet

Tell us what’s happening:
I am working on the project of “survey form”. I had a draft html and wanted to use css to style it but th external stylesheet does not work. At the moment I am using internal stylesheet. May I get help on how to activate the external stylesheet?
Thank you.

Challenge: Build a Survey Form

Thanks.
