There are a number issues with your code here.

CSS consists of 3 different parts - a selector, a property, and a property value. The property and property value together make up what is called a declaration. We start with a selector followed by curly brackets. Inside the curly brackets we have the property followed by a colon, then we define the property value and end the declaration with a semicolon. It should look something like:

selector {
property: propertyValue;
}

After completing the previous challenge your css should have looked something like this:

h1, h2, p {
  text-align: center;
}

That is a complete rule. Now the challenge is asking you to create a new rule for body, making the background-color brown. So we know that our selector is going to be “body”, our property will be “background-color” and our property value will be “brown”.
