What has you confused? Please talk to us about how you are stuck in your own words

These are the instructions: Give the #text element a background-color of #0a0a23 , a color of #ffffff , and 10px of padding on all sides.
I don’t know how to go about this

What about the instructions is confusing?

Okay. What part of the instructions are confusing?

Are you having trouble figuring out how to target the #text element? Are you having trouble assigning the background-color, the color, or is the padding a little confusing?

I am having trouble trying to get the text element

Quick question, do you know CSS?

#text is what you are looking for literally .
