It looks like you are using the incorrect syntax here

you need to target the body selector and give it background color to the value mentioned.

Here is the lesson in the responsive web design certification that covers how to add styles for type selectors

Also, the next few steps will be dealing with css. So I would suggest reviewing the cafe menu project which teaches the basics of css

hope that helps

If you want to change the CSS properties of a DOM Element like the body element, you have to target that element with a selector followed by brackets.

body {

}

Then inside those brackets, you need to choose the property that you wish to change, followed by a colon, then the value, then close up that line with a semicolon.

some-property: some-value;
