:balloon: Hi, welcome to the forum!
We see you have posted some code but did you have a question?

Next, you want to center the div horizontally. You can do this by setting its margin-left and margin-right properties to auto. Think of the margin as invisible space around an element. Using these two margin properties, center the div element within the body element.
i dont know how to pass this stage, i think i’m stuck and i need help

not sure why you have html inside your css?
<body> and </body> these are both html , not css
