Tell us what’s happening:
Hi! My code is working but i wrote “help” on purpose because I don’t understand something. How does the element from <p><span><span class="bold">Total Fat</span> 8g</span> <span class="bold">10%</span></p> (it’s a the bottom of the html code) work?

I don’t understand how it makes “10%” align to the right, why is “8g” next to “Total Fat” and not to “10%”?

Your code so far

Welcome to our community!

This is all happening because of the following CSS code:

p {
  margin: 0;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
}

The properties ‘display’ and ‘justify-content’ affect how will the group of ‘span’ elements behave. The <span> tag is an inline container used to mark up a part of a text, or a part of a document. You have two main span elements here. Justify-content’s value ‘space-between’ separate them to the left and right.

The <span> tag is much like the <div> element, but <div> is a block-level element and <span> is an inline element.

I understand it better now, thanks. But how does each know where they are supposed to go?
