I searched, and found a solution from someone else stuck on this exercise.

p {

font-size:16px;

}

However, I still have a question, is it valid to then add and keep the code < p class=“font-size”> ? to add this attribute to all < p> elements?

This exercise was tough as it seems that there was no mention to write the code p { … this way, to make it work.

Hey Andy,
You cannot use the inline css in this.
You have to make use of internal css i.e using style tag.

It was already mentioned in the example about h1 tag so that you can do in similar manner for p.
Hope it helps.
